(No, I'm not stoned. :-)
- andrewingram 16y agoI really wish I could tell the colours apart, I would prefer if it were plotted as an actual heat map rather than just a bunch of dollar symbols.
- Groxx 16y agoNot much of a nitpick, IMO. It's a pretty big oversight. Curiosity: does any easy color-cycling software for monitors exist for color-blind people? It seems this could be solved by just rotating the color wheel until you can see the difference (even if the result is fugly).
- callahad 16y agoI've heard good things about eyePilot: http://www.colorhelper.com/ http://www.colorhelper.com/ They have a flash demo explaining what it does at http://www.colorhelper.com/tutorial.php http://www.colorhelper.com/tutorial.php
- Groxx 16y agoThat's a decent solution, and one of the nicer demos I've seen in quite a while. Having a floating window makes a fair bit of sense from a programming / UI standpoint. Makes me want to make it system-wide, however. As useful as a floating window is, unless it has a way of supporting click-through (which is still guaranteed to be more cumbersome than not having a floating window), you still can't interact with things properly. Hmmmm... you've given me yet another thing to add to my list of things to program. I think I'm thankful for that, though I'm definitely thankful for the link :)
