To choose a similar color, select one of the segments on the left and right edges of the color bar. The Color Picker editor suggests two lighter shades on the left of the bar, and two darker shades on the right of the bar. Selecting one of these similar colors adds that color to the colors history.
To add a new color format, select Add custom color format. You can choose the color format's Name and Format. Select Save to add the color format. The syntax for color formats is described in the Add custom color format dialog.
To edit a color format, select it from the list. You can edit the color format's Name and Format in the Edit custom color format dialog. Select Update to save your changes. The syntax for color formats is described in the Edit custom color format dialog.
Need to figure out a color quickly? Using Microsoft's free PowerToys utility for Windows 10, you can instantly bring up a color picker with a keyboard shortcut and use your mouse cursor to identify any color on screen in hex, RGB, or HSL format. Here's how to do it.
To use Microsoft's handy system-wide color picker, you'll need to download PowerToys from Microsoft's website first. You'll find the latest release listed toward the top of the download page linked above. Download an EXE file such as "PowerToysSetup-0.27.1-x64.exe" (The name will vary based on the latest release.) and run it.
Once Color Picker is enabled, you can use it at any time by pressing Windows+Shift+C (or whatever keyboard shortcut you chose) on your keyboard. After pressing the shortcut, you'll see a small pop-up box beside your mouse cursor that shows a square preview of the color you're pointing to and the hexadecimal code (often called "hex" for short) for that color.
You can point your cursor at any color on screen that you want, including icons, applications, images, desktop backgrounds, the taskbar, and more. If you want more info on the color, click the left mouse button while hovering over it, and a window will pop up.
This window displays the hex color code, the RGB (red, green, blue) value, and the HSL (hue, saturation, lightness) value of the color you just selected. If you'd like to copy one of those values (as a text string) to the clipboard, hover over it and click the "copy" icon that appears.
When you're done, click "OK," and then the color will be added to your saved color palette, which is the vertical column of boxes along the left side of the window. If you need to remove a color from the palette on the side of the window, right-click the color square and select "Remove."
To leave Color Picker at any time, press Escape on your keyboard or click somewhere to call up the detail window again and click the "X" button in the upper-right corner to close the window. Whenever you need Color Picker again, just hit Windows+Shift+C from anywhere and you'll be back to picking colors in no time.
Version 0.20.0 of Windows 10 PowerToys adds a new utility to its set of featured applications. The Color Picker allows you to quickly find the specific and unique identifying information for any color displayed on your computer screen. That information is copied to your Windows 10 clipboard where it can be retrieved later.
For developers, graphic artists, photographers, marketers, and many others, knowing the precise identification information for a particular color is vital. For consumers, blue is blue, but for the creators and developers there are thousands of shades of blue. Color Picker allows these creators a simple way to consistently use the right shade of blue.
Perhaps the most powerful aspect of Color Picker is the fact that is a system-wide application. The keyboard combination shortcut of Win+Shift+C will activate Color Picker regardless of what other application(s) are running. Just hover the resulting mouse cursor (Figure B) over the color you wish to record identifying information for and left click your mouse.
Before Windows 10 PowerToys Color Picker, such a seemingly simple operation would have required more than a few applications and some gymnastics with open screens to accomplish. The Color Picker tool greatly simplifies this process and will save developers and creators time when working with color and color design projects.
Whether you're a graphic designer, a web developer, or a programmer, sometimes you need to precisely duplicate a color you see on the screen to use in your work. And one tool up for the job is Color Picker, courtesy of Microsoft's free PowerToys.
With Color Picker, you use an eyedropper to select a specific color on the screen. From there, the app identifies the color and translates it into different values, including RGB, HEX, and CMYK. The default value is copied to the Windows clipboard, where you can paste it into a graphic or web design program or insert it into your code.
2. By default, pressing the activation shortcut opens Color Picker, lets you pick a color, and then takes you to the editor for further actions. By clicking the dropdown menu for Activation behavior, you can change the response to opening the editor directly or only picking a color. But the default behavior works best for most situations.
3. In the section for Picker behavior, you can choose the default format for the color you pick, meaning the value that's copied to the clipboard. When working with an application or web design code, HEX is typically the most commonly used format, so it's the default. But you can click the dropdown for Default color format to change it to a different format (Figure 3).
5. That takes us to the Editor section. Here is where you can specify which color formats should appear in the editor, so you have a choice of using other values beyond the default. At a minimum, I usually select HEX, RGB, and CMYK. But other formats are available for more specialized purposes. Turn on the switch for any format you want to see. Click the ellipsis icon next to a specific format you've chosen, and you can move it up or down in the list that appears in the editor (Figure 4).
Now it's time to take Color Picker for a test drive. Let's say you're creating code for an application or website, or you're trying to duplicate a color to use in a graphic program. You like a color you see somewhere on the screen.
2. Move your mouse cursor until it's precisely on the color you want to select. Sometimes nailing the exact color is tricky if the section with that color is very small or too close to surrounding colors. In that case, Color Picker will let you zoom in on the area to select the color more easily. Move your mouse's scroll wheel or use two-finger swiping on a trackpad to zoom in on the spot (Figure 6).
6. What if you want to modify the color? The color you picked appears in the middle of the bar at the top. Click that section on the bar, and another editor pops up where you can manually refine the HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) by dragging the three different sliders or the RGB or HEX values by changing the numbers (Figure 9).
7. What if you want a variation of the color you picked? Notice that the bar at the top displays the color you selected along with lighter and darker variations. Click one of the variations to select it and modify it or copy it to the clipboard (Figure 10).
8. Finally, as you pick additional colors, each one appears on the left side of the editor. Scroll down the list of previous colors if you wish to return to one that you selected in the past (Figure 11).
Colorpicker is efficient through its interface. Every features are accessible from the toolbar and shortcuts. You have the possibility to choose any color thanks to the three RGB sliders (soon HSL, CMYK, ...)!
There was one guy that that I know of that created such a commercialcolor picker with an eternally free trial version.Unfortunately, you can't purchase the application anymore because its developeris out of business. If you want, you can download and install only thetrial version of the program which is free of charge.
i'm using the free version of sketchbook (ver. 8.71.0000) on a windows 10 laptop (dell inspiron 3593) and pen tablet (XP Pen Deco 01 v2) and whenever i try to use the dropper whether it be through pressing the key shortcut Alt (this is an entirely different problem but i'll mention it anyway- once i press alt and the icon for the dropper shows up, it stays there even though i've already picked a colour. it even picks the colours of my task bar, my search bar, which i think isn't even supposed to happen because they're outside the app itself. the only way i can get rid of the **** dropper is by triggering another window to pop up- e.g. pressing the windows button to trigger the start menu) or clicking the color puck and clicking the dropper icon, everything always freezes after i get to pick a colour. i can't press undo, the layers, the brushes, everything becomes unusable in an instant- i can't even press the X button to free myself of the misery- the only thing i can still do in that state is to draw and erase (my stylus can toggle between brush and eraser with the push of a button) but besides that, it's like the entire program and all the toolbars are static images. the only way i can exit is thru the task manager- ending the task, and whenever i restart it (sometimes the artwork saves, sometimes it doesn't so i just have to be lucky) a few seconds later and it freezes again. i tried a lot of solutions like uninstalling and reinstalling the program, deleting the app files, and restarting my laptop but they all ended up in a failure. i really thought this program was a bang for the buck since there were so many good texture brushes and a built in copic palette and i still love using it, but if one of the most essential tools ends up freezing the program everytime i use it, then it's basically unusable. tldr please fix this, i really like this program and i have been using it for over a month now, but it's so buggy that i can't even use it properly. looking forward to your response.
