Version
1.2.0
The program gives you the opportunity to view HTML
color information within any program or web-page by
placing the mouse cursor over a color. You have the
ability to store colors from any one of the color
palettes included within the program. By clicking
the 'store an off-form color', you may click anywhere
on the screen to capture the color values of this
area. This includes any other program or web-page. You
must click this option each time you wish to do this.
These stored colors may be printed to the printer or
saved/viewed from within the program generated html
web page.
If you click and drag the edge of the form to enlarge
it, the color palettes will also resize. This gives
you the ability to clearly see which color you are
exploring. You may also hide the color palettes and
keep the form on top of other screens.
The color palettes that are included were computer
generated using various values of red, green, blue
from 0 to 255. These were created to allow us a
starting point on various color patterns. Each
palette was created using different combinations of
numbers between 0 and 255. All combinations were
based on dividing 255 by 3, 5 or 17 and then using
these increments.
We could go more into how we used the numbers, but we
won't do it here.
Suffice it to say that: The 72 color palette uses 4
shades of green, 6 shades of red and 3 shades of
blue. The 216 color palette uses 6 shades of green, 6
shades of red and 6 shades of blue. The 828 red color
palette uses 15 shades of green, 9 shades of red and 6
shades of blue. The 828 blue color palette uses 15
shades of green, 6 shades of red and 9 shades of
blue. The 953 Pantone color palette uses all the
Pantone colors.
Of course with the 'slider' you can get all 16 million
plus colors, just not at once.
The 'slider' allows you to define your red, green,
blue values for both the top and bottom of the
screen. This allows you to 'melt' two colors
together, generating a variety of colors.
