Accurate Colour Selection

I remember when I used to use Discord Unit frames and Action bars it wonderfuly added copy and paste buttons to the colour picker so that you could have exactly the same colour on multiple elements.

I'd like this functionality back, particularly for my multitude of eePanels. Is there a current mod out there that enables this functionality? Be this ace'd or not, but preferably as small as possible, ideally it should do nothing other than this.

Functions I'd like:

- Red, Green, Blue and Alpha value entry as numbers (preferably between 0 and 255 rather than 0 and 1).
- Copy and Paste to save me entering the same four numbers over and over again.

Seems like an obvious requirment when doing heavy UI modification, and to be honest it's a bit suprising that it's not already in Blizzard's UI.

A nice ace mod called EnhancedColourPicker is available on WowAce downloads. Sounds like it has everything you're looking for.

I think Enhanced Color Picker is supposed to provide both of those. The only thing I'm unsure of is whether it's between 0 and 255 or 0 and 1 for the color entry fields.

Cheers for the quick responses.

Been a bit of a muppet on this one, searching using the US spelling of colour in the assumption that would be the majority of people writing mods might be from the US.

Now to wait till I get home to fine tune my eePanels to perfection.

0 and 1

But it's very easy to just divide normal RGB numbers by 256 to get that value :P

You realize that you're talking about a change in like the thousands place of the number right?

I suppose it would be 255, but it doesn't much matter :P
