Re: Feature request Colour picker

 

That would be an option as well, but it is not easier to implement than the other one I guess. I like it better than the chooser however. There could be a menu like this:

 * bold
 * italic
 * underlined
 * strikethrough
 * color
     o red
     o green
     o blue
     o ...
     o custom

The "custom" entry would then open a color chooser. I probably won't have the time to implement this, but patches are welcome ;)

Cheers,

Jendrik,

Thanks for considering the idea. I have had another thought on this which may make the solution to my request slightly easier at least in the short term.

Would it be possible to implement a further entry in the 'Format' dropdown for 'Custom colour?

I reason that most people who want a custom colour would know the code for it already. I only suggest this as it may be a simpler task than the usual block of colours with the additional option to select a custom colour.

I hope that makes sense. Sorry if I have rambled on a bit. It's been a hot day here in Greece and I have had too much time on my hands!

Regards,

Bob

Hi,
that's a nice idea. I put it on the list, but obviously it doesn't have high priority. I guess for most users the simple colors like "red" and "green" can be specified in english text.

Jendrik et al,

Another suggestion in respect of exporting text, particularly to HTML!

Whilst I am on something of a roll, I thought that I would float this idea. Is there any possibility of including a colour picker so that text colour can be selected more simply?

I am aware of how to colour text using txt2tags markup but this becomes a little clumsy if one wants to regularly change text colour using a code such as #40e0d0, not just your normal red, blue, cyan etc..

I don't know if this is within the realms of the possible but if it were, it would make anyone who exports to HTML's life simpler!
