Supported color patterns

  • Hex color code (e.g. #ffffff, #000)
  • Css rgb/rgba values (e.g. rgb(0,0,0), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8))
  • Css hsl/hsla values (e.g. hsl(0, 100%, 50%), hsla(120, 100%, 50%, 0.5))

Multiple colors

  • Show top two colors in a sidebar if there are multiple colors in a line.
  • If you want to check all colors, please click a specific rectangle. They will be shown as a list.

Change a color using the color chooser

  • Click a colored rectangle
  • Click a color value of a list
  • Select a new color in the color chooser
  • An old color value will be changed to new one with the same format

NOTE

  • Colors may be shown if they are not color codes. e.g. "#feature" contains #fea. This plugin recognizes it as a hex color code.
  • If you use the GTK Look and Feel, you cannot change an alpha value in the color chooser.
  • Hsl or hsla color values may not be changed correctly when you use the color chooser. (There may be 1% errors.)

RE: Awsome plugin!

Hi Mardonis,

Could you submit your issue to the GitHub issue tracker[1] if possible?

Thanks!

Awsome plugin!

Wonderful little plugin. Works great. Could you add the ability for OpenGL and GLSL (vertex, geometry, & fragment shaders) format also please?

Example OpenGL: glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
Example GLSL: out_Color = vec4(1.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);

Thank you,

I'll try it :)

> I'd like to avoid the additional left margin for other files.

I think so.

Thanks!

Good idea!

Very good idea! Thx for this plugin.

Could you add an option to enable/disable by file type?
Example: I'd like to enable it for css/less/sass files only. I'd like to avoid the additional left margin for other files.

Regards,

RE: Nice one

Yes, the plugin just searches some color patterns. Doesn't check mime-types.

Thanks!
