Do you use the Windows colour picker?

I prefer the general Windows colour picker; however, I really like the picker which generates close variants too - specifically that functionality, rather than the accompanying picker.

Edit: Palette/swatch functionality would be a nice addition, yeah

Hi Eoin,

I prefer the general Windows colour picker;

So what do you prefer about it?

Regards,

The option to import and create Photoshop swatch files would be very useful but then so would a color gradient node but another topic for another time.

I only ever use the HSB tab, it's perfect. A 'save colours' option would be nice and a screen picker even nicer, no big deal though. Can't really get my head around the mixer tab and the wheel isn't as precise as it could be. The HSB tab is great.

For colour picking from the screen as a colour blind hippie I use Colour Spy, a handy free utility...

Just found this thread.  No I don't use the windows colour picker I use the sliders. I wish though that all 3 sliders sets rgb, hsb and grey scale wer on one panel rather than 3.  Glad to here a colour picker will be added in the future.
