I watched a youtube video of someone doing a portrait oil painting in ArtRage and noticed they had a customized Color Picker.
How would one do this?

Does this help?

Thanks Enug!

You can also open custom colour pickers by clicking on the current colour at the bottom right of the colour picker then choosing 'Custom colour pickers' from the menu.

Regarding the colour picker in the original post, I suspect that may be ArtRage's normal colour picker but due to highly compressed or low quality video, it's not looking smooth anymore which would give it that blocky effect,

No i really don't think that's the case.

Anyway what i like about this Color Picker, is that it shows the Color ranges incrementally in those 'cells', like a simplified range to pick from.
Could that be done programatically?
Like a sort of cellular filter applied to the Color Picker?
When he changes color by selecting the outside edge colors, the cells in the color picker update.

I agree with the DaveRage's opinion about the problem:
My experiment:
1. copy the c.p.; 2. Paste in the IrfanV;3.Dec. the c. depth. 4. And got the following img:

Can you analyze that video? E.g. I pass my video through a filter to extirpate any P-info.

But the q. — „Could that be done programmatically?“ — is highly interesting.

I see so you're able to replicate, very good.
I agree with you about it.

I thought it was being done via some filter.
I like the image you've created.
It's much more akin to oil painting isn't it?

The normal color picker gradiant is to granular, too fine.
This cellular look is nice.

What do you think?
Do you think anybody can actually do something like that or this wishful thinking?

If you download the image below, you could add it as a custom colour picker.

This only really works if the colour picker is set to HS/L mode.

To do this, click on the current colour at the bottom right of the picker and choose HS/L Picker from the list.

Now add the custom colour picker like this:

Click the current colour at the bottom right of the picker and choose 'Custom Colour Pickers'

The custom colour picker panel will open.

Choose a group to add the new picker on the left ( I just chose 'Pickers )

Click the 'Import Picker' button then browse to the image file you downloaded ( Cellular Picker.png ), select it and choose 'Open'

You should then see it added to the current custom picker group.

Click it and close the panel.

This was made using a similar method to the one Roma Golich described.
I took a screenshot of the colour picker, pasted it into Irfanview, cropped it then reduced the colour depth

I hope this is of some help!

EDIT: Replaced image with a better version

Pleasant to the eye!

By the way, do you plan to transform the ar into a ctor (in a Common Obj Model-based style?) — UI Object Model (custom panels with UI-controls to run/control the loaded scripts, e.g.), DocObjModel, Pluggable Script Engines (like ms Active Scripting), Real-Time Concurrent Scripts (event handlers), Pluggable Tool Engines, Sandbox, and the core artRage as a 3d-blackboard (core 3d algorithms, like BSP Tree, scheduling, platform abstraction layer, etc.) ?

Please! Add a hot-keys for the „Rotation“.

We don't have any plans to expose the application to external modifications at this time, but the Scripting Engine can actually do a bunch of stuff already that relates to this, including the generation of UI panels for custom defined input values.

Thanks DaveRage.
You've created a very nice approximation.
However i have to point out that it's missing the shading and tinting values in the original image.
Each hue should range from black to white.

As this is a custom picker it's not possible to provide a low bit-depth version that does every hue in full luminance/saturation range. The main body of the picker is a static image so all you can approximate is 2 dimensions of the colour triad, in this case Hue and Saturation.

The original screenshot isn't possible in ArtRage itself, that's just poor video compression reducing the bit depth of the live colour picker.

In case anyone's wondering, this is what the custom picker I posted above would look like when used in ArtRage.

The outer ring can't be replaced as this is procedurally generated. This controls the Luminance of the colour selected in the main area of the colour picker.
