Summary0006122: I prefer colour wheel and sliders than infinite long colour list
DescriptionThat is. It would be better to have a colour wheel panel in place of the colour list that is very annoying to roll down every single time.

Aren't you confusing things here? There's a colour list for already defined colours. You can easily add a new colour by clicking the "New" button. Whether it would be useful to integrate the colour wheel with the colour dialogs (new and edit) remains a subject for discussion. See also 6107.

and what about an option: "show used colors"
... i mostly work with the provided list of colors, but i only need the full list at the beginning of the work and when i want to choose a new color.

(so "remove unused" is not an option... but hide unused is one :-)

a button "show/hide unused" under the "remove unused" one in the color dialog could do it for me.

i fear i could also try to implement it, if the devs agree that this is an interesting feature...

as anounced on the list i'd like to put a checkbox in the colormanagement dialog (colorm.cpp) to switch the status of "show/hide unused colors".
(a screenshot is attached)

now, i've noticed that that the ColorManager doesn't acces the prefsManager.

here the variables which are passed to the ColorManager:

ColorManager* dia = new ColorManager(this, edc, doc, prefsManager->colorSetName(), prefsManager->appPrefs.CustomColorSets);

so i could use the reference i get with "this" (this->prefsManager).
but: should i?

This issue relates to 0000612 and the discussion there is to be kept in mind imo.

thanks louis for the relation!

now, i don't really understand which of the features discussed there should be implemented and how.

i'm trying to put my ideas on the "development" wiki page at

http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/Colour_Manager


i will try to summarize there what i think is to save from 0000612 and i will be happy to read some comments from you or other users/devs.

i will then put an abstract of the work here and/or in 0000612


... and i will go on in first implementing a way to hide the unused colors.

ciao

What about also adding HLS as many other graphics and DTP apps do? And what about the choice of RGB, CMYK, etc. sliders OR a colour wheel OR the colour rectangle?
