prestopalette's Issues

Rotate the Gamut

As an artist, I want to be able to set the handles, but once the handles are set then I want to be able to rotate the entire gamut around the center wherever it is. I am asking for a "rotate" tool. Maybe it's launched from a tool button on the PP main window somewhere. Maybe the button is called "Rotate". Once it is pushed, then I then click a handle (any handle) on the gamut and moving it causes the gamut to rotate. But the center point stays put.

Ability to edit the endpoint colors

When I want a specific color to be on one of the endpoints, it’s very hard to set it with the current method. It would be awesome if I could explicitly set them somehow (eg. double clicking on an endpoint maybe?)

When saving palette, save the background color with the palette

As an artist, I appreciate the background color. Please add the background color to the saved palette whether it be on the clipboard or to a PNG file.

@dagostinelli,

I’m afraid that http://www.prestopalette.com/ points to a non-existing resource.

Many thanks for your excellent work.

During testing, color green was off by 1 digit -- rounding error?

During a recent test, a green color was added to the palette. Then mouse over the green. Then look at the current color value. Now screenshot everything and bring it over to Gimp or Photoshop and inspect the colors and compare the RGB value iunder Current Color. It is off by 1 digit. Rounding error?

Scale the Gamut

As an artist, I want to be able to set the handles, but once the handles are set then I want to be able to scale the entire gamut keeping the center where it is. I am asking for a "scale" tool. Maybe it's launched from a tool button on the PP main window somewhere. Maybe the button is called "Scale". Once it is pushed, then I then click a handle (any handle) on the gamut and moving it causes the gamut to scale. But the center point stays.

Gamut to Rainbow

This is a little hard to explain. With the push of a button (a new tool button) hide everything on the screen except the gamut. The gamut is usually a solid white line and the handles are white. Now pain the gamut the color of whatever is behind it on the color-wheel. Pixel by pixel. This will give a rainbow effect to the gamut. With the background hidden, the artist can see what colors were "in between" two endpoints. This may offer the artist an extra option.

Combined with the ability to save the gamut to a png or to clipboard, this feature becomes more powerful.

Display HEX and HSL values under "Current Color" box

Right below the Current Color, PP displays the RGB value. Now we want to add the HEX and HSL values below the RGB.

Fixed resolution

https://github.com/PrestoPalette/PrestoPalette/blob/cee409994bf08bdc2f1fa6a79ff24a1fccf0d99f/gui_mainwindow.h uses hardcoded values of 1280x800 which makes smaller screens unusable and large screens unable to fill their screen.

Add the PrestoPalette logo to saved palettes

When saving a PNG of the palette or using the clipboard, superimpose the PP logo at the bottom right. This serves to promote PrestoPalette.

Click and Drag the entire gamut around without moving the handles

As an artist, I want to be able to set the handles, but once the handles are set then I want to be able to drag around the entire gamut. I am asking for a "select all" or "translate" feature. Maybe it's launched from a tool button on the PP main window somewhere. Maybe the button is called "Select". Once it is pushed, then I can click and drag the entire gamut at once.

Codesign the Mac OSX Version

It's not code-signed.
