Add a colour picker #258

Open michael-milette opened 2 years ago

michael-milette commented 2 years ago

Thank you for sharing CCA, a very useful tool with the world-wide community.

Sometimes I am not starting with a screen colour, but trying to choose colours from scratch. Unfortunately recent versions of CCA seem to only allow you to either enter a random hex code and hope that it will be similar to what you had in mind, or to choose an existing colour off of the screen.

I would like to see the integration of a modern colour picker where you could choose a start colour.

Right now, I need to open another application such as Photoshop, pick my starting colour from its colour picker, copy and paste the hex code into CAA just to be able to have a starting point. It would be really nice and helpful if a colour picker could be included in CCA.

Here is an example from the Accessible Color Generator, which I mentioned in a previous ticket #256 image

Best regards,
