Alan Preece Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Hi All Many years ago I created a custom palette in inkscape where when my mouse hovered over a colour, a label would appear. ie a number or letter. This was a GPL file which was copied into the inkscapes directory. I am now using Affinity but need to recreate this project. Is their a way of doing this? I appreciate I can create a swatch from a document and make it an application file but it is the labels that are bugging me. Many thanks Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted June 16, 2022 Staff Share Posted June 16, 2022 Hi @Alan Preece, When hovering over the palette in the Swatches Studio, the name provided to the palette will show - Is this what you're looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomaso Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 The Affinity interface has this feature build-in: holding the cursor (any) over a colour swatch in the Swatches Panel will make the label pop up. It displays the name of the swatch which you can edit via right-click on the swatch. Maybe you need to shorten the pop-up delay.
