Surjeet Posted Tuesday at 01:28 PM Posted Tuesday at 01:28 PM Hi AIDA Team, currently we only have RGB colour selection in the Sensor Panel manager where we can add numbers only: Would it be possible to add support for HEX color codes (e.g., #ff5733)? This could make the color selection process more intuitive and user-friendly. Additionally, if the "Add to Custom Colors" feature could be enhanced with a smarter algorithm - perhaps one that adds each new custom color to the list sequentially, making it easier to manage and reuse saved colors. Thank you for considering these suggestions! 2 Quote

Thank you for considering these suggestions! Sadly that panel is managed by Windows itself, so we cannot alter its behavior. We would have to develop the whole panel from scratch which would be quite a task. Instead of that, how about unlocking the HEX color codes input by right-clicking on the colour boxes? Quote

Yes, you have the right point regarding Windows. Two things: 1. When I checked Windows Word ad Windows Paint, the Hex code was there: May be Sensor Panel Manager use other technique which is different from above! 2. When you say "unlocking the HEX color codes input by right-clicking on the colour boxes", did you mean that we can provide Hex code which will be then used as output? If we can provide HEX code by any mean to get the respective color, it will work. If that is not possible, nothing to worry ................we respect and understand! Quote

We can start with a basic HEX code input panel and gradually improve it to fulfill all your needs. @BHSY @COSTAJUNIOR @JariKoi Guys, please chime in: if we started to design a brand new colour picker dialog, what would you like to see on it? Which colour picker dialog do you find ideal to use? (e.g. the one of MS Word, MS Paint, etc) Quote

I would vote for MS Paint one as shown in the picture: I will wait and would love to hear from our great creators: 😍 @BHSY, @COSTAJUNIOR @JariKoi 😍 1 Quote

I don't have to remember 3 separate codes like the RGB, just copy and paste the HEX codes from Illustrator or Photoshop. I, too, opt for the colour picker from Windows Paint as mentioned by @Surjeet, the Hex code input was placed as the first choice to enter the colour code. Also, we can save custom colors, which is important. Edited Wednesday at 09:27 AM by BHSY 1 Quote

I completely agree with BHSY. Thanks again if you do this color update.👍 Of course, it would also be good to have a color palette. It's very easy to choose a color from it. Similar to what is used in Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. 1 Quote

Qual caixa de diálogo para seleção de cores vocês acham ideal para usar? (por exemplo, a do MS Word, MS Paint, etc.) I really like the color dialog in MS Paint, mainly because of its simplicity and the direct access to the custom color palette. It would be great to see something along those lines! Additionally, I’d like to suggest testing the implementation directly in Windows Paint, to observe how it behaves in a real and widely used environment. It would serve as a great practical reference to validate usability and clarity. Hexadecimal color support would be extremely important to ensure precision in color selection, especially in contexts where visual fidelity is essential. 👊 1 Quote
