OSX Colour Picker - feature request

nautilina, I'm not familiar with OSX color picker, but I think a possible problem with it would be the support for floating-point colors and alpha channel -- both are needed in FF. Also, the FF picker doesn't wait until you hit OK -- it updates the preview window as soon as you change the color within the picker.

The OSX color picker also supports transparency, for programs that need it.

It's a really amazing tool, and I second the request to have access to it, at least within Photoshop, if not in the stand alone version. (But I'd prefer it in both.)

If that can't be done, can we have, as a minimum, the ability to save colors for reuse, in the color picker that is part of FF?

I have a short tut about the OS X color picker, that I wrote several years ago when OS X was new, on my website. At that time, most of the things about the color picker were totally undocumented. Since that has changed, I haven't updated it recently. But it's a quick read, and will give you an idea about the power available to us with the System Picker.

Filter Forge GUI is written Carbon, not Cocoa. Porting it to Cocoa would mean rewriting the UI from scratch (and it would definitely take longer than the 2 years we spent on the Carbon version), so it's economically infeasible for us.

Oh well. Thanks for looking, anyway! (I'd rather have FF now, without the color picker, than wait another few years. )

Is there a chance of getting something that will let us save color swatches in the FF picker? Just a feature request.
