matt.baker Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Please could you give an option in the colour panel to choose the values of a particular colour space. The colour wheel is fixed at Hue Saturation and Lightness, but is a good method of quickly choosing a colour. All it needs is a small dropdown that allows cycling of the values in RGB, HSL, RGB Hexidecimal and CMYK Quote Highly recommended open source screen capture software (useful for bug reports). https://getsharex.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted July 3, 2018 Staff Share Posted July 3, 2018 Hi mattb5906, Click the small menu icon on the top right of the Colour panel and set it to Sliders. Then select other colour formats from the dropdown on the top right in the panel. stokerg 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt.baker Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 Thanks MEB, but what I'm after is the same colour chooser, but with values displayed. I find that the colour wheel is a free flowing way to select the colours. I like being able to see the values I'm choosing in one place. I use the Colour Chooser dialogue as my default, but it's annoying that it opens in another panel just so I can view all the values. It just needs the other colour space values adding. Something like this: Or this: Or maybe even this (although this looks a bit messy): Quote Highly recommended open source screen capture software (useful for bug reports). https://getsharex.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would the dialog that you get if you double-click on either the foreground or background color well help you? It gives you this color chooser, but you can still do basic color range selection using the color wheel while this dialog is showing: Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt.baker Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share Posted July 13, 2018 That's what I'm after, but in the colour studio panel without having to open another dialog which covers my design. Or even a cut down version of this in the panel rather than a separate dialogue. 11 hours ago, mattb5906 said: I use the Colour Chooser dialogue as my default, but it's annoying that it opens in another panel just so I can view all the values. I just find it a strange design desicion why HSL is shown, but nothing else.
