Title: No colour picker in windows version?
Post by: surrealdan on March 25, 2019, 10:22:04 PM
Hi, I was using a TG on mac at work, now at a new job with TG windows, but now doesn't have the colour picker! One of my most used tools. Will this be added eventually? Thanks!

The color pickers we provide should be the same on both platforms. There is an additional button to use the operating system-provided color picker (far-right of the color picker dialog toolbar at top), and this will differ between Mac and Windows. If you're not seeing the normal Terragen color picking dialog, can you specify exactly how and where you're trying to access it? What happens when you click color select buttons?

Hi, its specifically the small eyedropper button on the color wheel option, I use it to pick a color from web images, reference, outside of TG. That doesn't seem to be in the windows version. unless there is another way to do that.

I believe that is a feature of the Mac (operating system-provided) color picker which Windows simply doesn't have. Tell Microsoft they should do better! :D
