Custom picker utility

[Dany51]

Just extract the directory somewhere, and then drop a .col file over the executable.
You can also drop a simple txt file containing an integer, to create a transparent picker template for that amount of colors, which you can then fill up in gimp or photoshop.

I don't know what an integer is,
I have a text like that:
"#333333
#5588aa
#666666
#999999
#cc6600
#000000
#505050
#676767
#cccccc
#0000cc
#f0f0f0
#ffffff
"
and tried to use it but I didn't have anything .
Also two or three col files didn't work ,
one was about six or eight color , the other, I don't know ,certainly bigger.

I any case, the others worked well.

Thank you very much !!

Just try putting in some text file (num.txt or something)

5

where 5 is the amount of color swatches you want.

That should do the trick.

A different text than the one with the colors ?!

Isn't possible to ad it in a different line after or before the text colors,
in the same file ?

[Dany51]

Well, I tried the both ways and with the two files I get the transparent template, where I can have any color I choice ?!
Eventually I can make the choice of the number of colors of my palette and do the template and after have the palettes.

I don't know if it will be visible , I show what I get (white on white,
if you click on the image you can see where it is the template) :

If you open up the file in Artrage (File -> Import Image File), you should see the opaque and transparent parts of the image just fine. After that it's just a matter of filling (hotkey "f") the areas with colors desired.

I'm not sure about the .col issue. It might have something with the input format. Hopefully azathothgr can answer that issue better.

Thanks bebraw, is a good idea to use directly Art Rage,

what I wanted to say was that in fact which colors was in the text is not important as long as you do the palette after
but it give to me the idea to make a template with a certain number of colors on my choice and after do the different palettes.

Oo why didn't I think of that! The text file was just for entering a number of colors,and creating an empty template. But it could certainly have hex values and create a full picker, I'll look into it if you like. Might be useful for copying colors from web tools or something like that..
As for the .col files that didn't work, maybe they're artrage2 .col files, and they're different than AR3 in some way, or I just didn't understand the col file format very well. After all I just opened some in a hex editor and saw where all the values were.
Could you attach them?

Hexidecimal too ... ooo yes please
