Option to automatically set color from Windows accent/taskbar color #23

Windows can automatically choose a palette based on your desktop background. It would be cool to have the option for the skins to do that too. (I swear I've seen a plugin for that somewhere...)

Not exactly the wallpaper color, but here's some code to get the window's taskbar color: https://forum.rainmeter.net/viewtopic.php?p=113411#p113411

Brian wrote a plugin that will retrieve system colors: https://github.com/brianferguson/SysColor.dll

There's also a third-party plugin for pulling colors from the user's wallpaper. GitHub: https://github.com/socks-the-fox/Chameleon Website: https://software.socksthefox.net/chameleon/
