Color picker for tasks

Color picker for tasks

[pcros]

More important to me would be the possibility to match a user with a default color (with a bit more colors available, sure). Maybe I should write this in a different issue, tell me.

The way we use Kanboard might be not very orthodox but all the tasks of a particular assignee have always the same color. So we would like to select only an assignee when creating a task (instead of selecting an assignee and a color as we have to do now). On the task creation interface this would mean the first line of the color list (the default one) would be "default" (or "user" or "assignee")

But I have to reckon this is no big deal.

@pcros With the last version of Kanboard, you can assign a specific color to a specific user. To do that, you have to use the "automatic actions". See http://kanboard.net/documentation/automatic-actions

Later it will be possible to add more colors, probably something similar to Github Issues...

Works like a charm Frédéric, love it. Thanks very much.

For the initial issue reported by essembeh, I might suggest mimicking GTK's new color picker (a simple palette in a table instead of overwhelming the user with choice): see the screenshot in https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.12/GtkColorChooserDialog.html

This is (AFAIK) using the Tango palette: http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Theme_Guidelines#Color_Palette

I'm doing some work on avatars in my personal feature branch. I already had some code in there to provide a nicer way to choose a color, maybe I'll open another feature branch for that and reapply my patch.

@poikilotherm any progress on that patch of yours? Would be great to have a color picker palette widget. Lately the combobx list has grown to way more colors and they're all textual, and not sorted logically, which makes the thing hard to use consistently.
