Color Designer + Color Mod

Postby Perfect Human Interface » Thu Apr 23, 2015 10:24 am

I made a small dev tool for creating and tweaking colors with a graphic interface without having to rely on the Windows picker. Notably, it switches seamlessly between HSV, HSL, and RGB color modes.

I'm planning to create a related tool next, but I figured I'd look for feedback on this first, since it will be similar. Hopefully I didn't leave any loose ends (it is a bit hairy on the inside). But let me know what you think or if you find any problems.

EDIT: Version 1.1 now includes working color banks.

EDIT 2: Added new module: Color Mod
This adjusts an input color by adjusting the component values. Also supports HSV, HSL, and RGB color modes.

its cool that it includes the HSL too (didn't knew it does exist or how it defines the colors :? )

could be a good extension for tiffy's colordesigner where i did the color table for - it also shows / lets you edit, the colors in hexcolor format and it has a coulour picker too..

The HSL conversions were from "mwvdlee" on the Synthmaker forums, in his "missing links" toolkit (which contains a bunch of pretty cool stuff).

HSL is actually really useful for graphic stuff and it's what the Windows picker uses.

That color picker you linked actually reminded me I was going to, and entirely forgot to, add a few "banks" to this tool. It will make the interface bigger but I'll probably do that next.

Added new module: Color Mod (see first post)
This adjusts an input color by adjusting the component values. Also supports HSV, HSL, and RGB color modes.

My intention was to make this module work efficiently even for real-time changing color input, but note that it puts out 4x the triggers as the input, and I don't know of a way to fix this since trigger blockers and sample and holds don't work with color links.

These were the two tools I planned to make. Please let me know if you find any problems.

Minor update: just added some inputs to the color mod so the parameters can be controlled externally.
