gpick's Issues

Add a Keyboard Shortcut to Start Picking Colors

Original issue 48 created by thezbyg on 2011-11-14T21:17:12.000Z:

I don't see any keyboard shortcuts to start picking colors.
Having to click on the eye droppericon each time is slightly irritating.

Glitches when sampling the screen

Original issue 40 created by thezbyg on 2011-05-31T08:52:04.000Z:

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Go to the color picker tab
2. Hover the mouse over the area that displays the sampled color
3. Watch it glitch! (video of what happens is available here http://www.flickr.com/photos/hellocatfood/5780485058/ )

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using Gpick 2.4 on Ubuntu 11.04

gpl export writes colors in wrong order.

Original issue 33 created by thezbyg on 2011-04-30T00:14:22.000Z:

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. load the attached .gpa (or create your own)
2. export a gpl
3. drag some colors to a new position; remove them from the old position.
4. export a gpl with a different filename

result: the two exported gpls match. That is, the coloring order matches, rather than being rearranged.

Performing the [export, arrange colors in gpl, new file, import from gpl]
sequence results in the next 'export to gpl' giving correct results.

(Thanks for responding so promptly to issue # 32 :)

Will gpick be added to Canonical's official repos ?

Original issue 18 created by thezbyg on 2010-08-19T23:51:08.000Z:

Apologies for taking out an "issue" regarding this - but gpick is a great little tool and was wondering whether there has been any interest from Canonical in adding it to their official repositories ? It's the kind of tool that people would want to search for in the Software center, e.g., "Color Picker". Currently only people who find this site (or add the PPA) will be aware :-)

Cheers,

Patrick

Add numeric values on color picker

Original issue 46 created by thezbyg on 2011-08-23T20:08:13.000Z:

It will be very usefull to add numeric values near to color bars.

For example:

v RGB

[========A=========] 110
[=================A] 250
[==A===============] 75

So, users can see and type the RGB (or HSV, SHL, CMYK, etc.) values directly.

I know you can copy they using the right mouse clic over the color palette, but if you can not paste they on the destination application, the method I propose will be more useful.

A nice improvement will be to allow type the numeric values too.

Thanks! ;)

Color wheel not visible in Ubuntu 10.10

Original issue 20 created by thezbyg on 2010-10-18T20:41:01.000Z:

I've upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 recently and I noticed that color wheel is not visible now. Screenshot attached.

[Feature Request] Copy HEX to clipboard without the "#"

Original issue 16 created by thezbyg on 2010-01-25T15:30:43.000Z:

It's a feature request, but not an important one : Stupidly in Photoshop
CS2,CS3 or even CS4, we can't paste #HEX value with the "#" directly inside
Photoshop color swatch. To me, Photoshop is certainly missing something
here but, if it's possible to add, I would like the ability in gpick to
copy hex value to the clipboard with or without the "#".
I know it look like a stupid and not important feature request, but i can't
stop blaming Adobe for it...
What do you think about it ?

LAB mixing mode for "color mixer"

Original issue 30 created by thezbyg on 2011-04-28T00:28:07.000Z:

LAB mixing mode improves gradients between colors of a very different hue,
eg between 120, 20, 26 and 80,153,78. (dark red and medium green).
It also improves the general evenness of gradients compared to RGB mode.

Unified diff of source/uiDialogMix.cpp attached.

Provide more keyboard shortcuts

Original issue 31 created by thezbyg on 2011-04-29T09:36:11.000Z:

General usage speed could be improved by assigning some shortcuts:

• 'p' for the color pick button on the status bar
• 1,2,3,4,5,6 to switch the 'active' color in the comparison display
• alt+p,s,o to switch tabs

I'm happy to look into this.

GPL Export rounding error

Original issue 45 created by thezbyg on 2011-07-17T10:41:00.000Z:

1. Mix # 80ffff with #ffffff using LAB mixer, 3 steps.
   The results will be 80FFFF C8FFFF FFFFFF,
   which makes the 5 colors present in your palette, in order,

80FFFF FFFFFF 80FFFF C8FFFF FFFFFF.

1. Export to a gpl file
2. Import that gpl file

The imported hex values are different from the ones that are shown before export.
The values I get on the imported colors:

7FFFFF FFFFFF 7FFEFF C7FFFE FFFFFE

I verified this as rounding error by adding this to the LAB mixing code after the color_rgb_normalize() call:

                                            r.rgb.red += (0.49999/255.);
                                            r.rgb.green += (0.49999/255.);
                                           r.rgb.blue += (0.49999/255.);

(which makes this test succeed -- the export->imported palette has the same hex values as GPick showed before export.)

I believe that the exported values are being truncated rather than rounded. This results in occasional off-by-one errors.

Small patch attached to fix GPL exporting accuracy. It rounds the RGB values after they are multiplied up to the scale [0..255], in the function used by the exporter.

Add "Recent color palettes" menú item

Original issue 22 created by thezbyg on 2010-10-20T07:49:18.000Z:

First at all: great job!
Gpick it is a great tool for designers. I like it very much.

I have a suggestion:

It would be a nice idea to add a "Recent color palettes" submenú in the File menú.

I work with many .gpa palettes, but I must open they one by one, searching it on my HD.

An "Load Recent color palette" would be a great advance, because save lot of time to the users. ;)

Thanks!

gpl export seems to export mysterious extra colors.

Original issue 32 created by thezbyg on 2011-04-29T14:31:57.000Z:

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. create a palette. or load a palette, whatever.
2. export to gpl
3. result contains all of the colors in the palette, plus some/all from another palette, plus "manhattan ~' (which is not in any currently existing palettes of mine)

the test .gpa is attached, along with the resulting .gpl.
After the 'rodeo dust ~' line, the rest is junk (for me, the full set of colors from my ranger.gpa, plus "manhattan ~")
If I load ranger.gpa and export a gpl from that, I get the same set of colors in the same order, minus 'manhattan ~';
OTOH, if I restart gpick and load ranger.gpa immediately and export a gpl immediately, I get exactly all the colors in the palette and no strange extras.

cpu 100%

Original issue 14 created by thezbyg on 2009-11-24T06:37:39.000Z:

I'm using a gentoo linux system and build gpick with this ebuild:
http://github.com/transtone/transconfig/raw/master/zm-overlay/x11-misc/gpick/gpick-0.1.76.ebuild

After update to latest version 0.1.92, I found the ebuild does not work
because of the filename, so I unpack the source code and repack it to
gpick-0.1.92.tar.gz, it works like a charm.

Failed to bulid gpick in Ubuntu Lucid Lynx, "lua >= 5.1" is not satisfied

Original issue 24 created by thezbyg on 2010-10-25T08:25:18.000Z:

Whenever I ran `scons' to build gpick in Ubuntu, I encountered the following problems:

scons: Reading SConscript files ...
Checking for dbus-glib-1 >= 0.76... yes
Checking for gtk+-2.0 >= 2.12.0... yes
Checking for lua >= 5.1... no
Checking for lua5.1 >= 5.1... no

I have installed package Lua5.1 in Ubuntu Lucid Lynx with the corresponding versions of lua5.1, `apt-cache show lua5.1 | grep Version" produces the output "Version: 5.1.4-5".

Is there any solution for this, guys?

interactive 'mix colors' option in bottom pane

Original issue 44 created by thezbyg on 2011-07-10T08:53:02.000Z:

While often I want to make blends in the palette, it's very common that I end up going back and forth tuning the blend endpoints. For this, the 'mix colors' dialog is troublesome, because I have to repeatedly invoke it every time I change the endpoint colors.

If instead I could interact with the endpoints to directly tune them, and finally commit the result to the palette, that would be a lot more useful IMO, and would also make paint-program users,
of which I am one, happy (providing a 'blender' that can easily be dropped to or picked from.)

tl;dr version : An interactive version of 'mix colors' as a choice in the bottom pane would be very useful, IMO.

'Add all to palette' in 'Brightness/Darkness' produces disordered results

Original issue 38 created by thezbyg on 2011-05-29T00:07:37.000Z:

I was writing a detailed article on how to use GPick (which you are welcome to use here on the wiki, BTW, when it's done.), when
I discovered this bug.

Most logical groups of colors are added in an orderly way. Brightness-Darkness's colors, OTOH, are added in a consistent, but badly ordered way, IMO.

954
853
752
651

^^ text depiction of the layout of the brightness-darkness 'window', in the order that makes sense to add the colors IMO. 5 is the base color, 1-4 are darker versions, 6-9 are lighter. This would be consistent with the 'Variations' and 'Color scheme' 'windows' in terms of the color ordering it produces.

The order that they actually get added to the palette in currently looks like this:

846
943
241
745

(4 being the base color here.)

Which doesn't seem to have any sensible order to it at all.

Typing in the palette list activates a useless search box.

Original issue 42 created by thezbyg on 2011-06-04T15:21:33.000Z:

I was actually trying to set the active swatch slot when I found this.. so I was typing '2', '3' etc.

What actually happens:

• the standard GTK TreeView search box pops up.
• however, it doesn't seem to be searching on any sensible field -- IMO the only sensible field to search on is color name. The result of the current behaviour is simply that no search results seem to be found.

What should happen:

• This is definitely a personal preference: disable the search box, to allow active-swatch-slot selection while the palette TreeView is active. This makes it very easy to arrange some palette colors onto the swatch slots to compare them (much faster than DnD)
• (the other possibility, of course, being simply make the search box search on a sane column. This would be important to people who find it necessary to find colors by name. So far I'm not convinced such people exist ;)

Can't work with tiling window manager

Original issue 15 created by thezbyg on 2009-11-24T06:46:21.000Z:

Because gpick can't work with xmonad and awesome, I have to use gcolor2 in
the tiling window desktops. So how about put a "switch button" on it like
gcolor2 to let it work more manually?

Would you recommend to depend on subversion package? I use the stable
source tarball releases, not the svn source.

Multi-color internal clipboard

Original issue 36 created by thezbyg on 2011-05-06T04:34:08.000Z:

• to make it easier to move multiple colors within a palette.

After generating a gradient using 'mix colors' or a scheme using 'generate', I find I usually want to put it next to the original colors, but currently have to move one color at a time.

Considering that large numbers of colors can be generated (even as few as 16 becomes troublesome), we could usefully have some way to move large numbers of colors around. Internal 'Cut/Copy/Paste' is the traditional solution. This would nicely round out the arrangement-of-colors functionality.

The Magnifying Glass Can't Be Deactivated

Original issue 50 created by thezbyg on 2011-11-20T19:25:03.000Z:

When I don't pick colors, that is when I tune color values, I find the magnifying glass distracting and I would like to be able to disable it.

gpick packaging - lemon and amalgamation

Original issue 35 created by thezbyg on 2011-05-05T17:36:24.000Z:

Hi,

I'm packaging gpick for openSUSE (asked by one of our users), but I'm facing a tiny issue here with lemon.

As I don't have the lemon parser available (the one built from lemon.c), I have 2 possible ways:

1. Since lemon is only required at build time, I can attach the source and 'hand-compile' it on the spec file. Then hack scons build process to use it from the local directory where I've built it.
2. Ask upstream to include the generated C files in the source tarball (like SQLite amalgamation[1]) does, which would make lemon only required to hack the grammar, but not for building the package. I believe this solution would bring much more value to downstreamers (ex: fedora, opensuse, gentoo, arch, etc), and make our life more easy. This is also the process that SQLite uses[2], in fact they don't really support the 'legacy' release.

Any way we can have option 2? That C generated files are included on the source tarball?

Can't drag colors further than one page at once

Original issue 34 created by thezbyg on 2011-05-01T03:42:41.000Z:

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. create a palette with enough colors that you have to scroll to access them all
2. go to the bottom of the palette and try to drag the last color up to the first location in the palette

The color drags only to the top of the page. Autoscroll doesn't activate.
In this situation, currently we have to drag the color, delete the color from old position,
drag the color, delete from old position.. until it ends up at the place you want.

I have already tried implementing this via the attached patch, however unlike
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1336996 says, gtk_container_set_focus_vadjustment() doesn't effect the behaviour in this case.

Makefile is not correct

Original issue 1 created by thezbyg on 2009-04-04T08:35:51.000Z:

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. just compile the source with make
2. error with no "obj bin" folder
   3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Without the errror.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.0.34, I use the gcc 4.3.3

Please provide any additional information below.
I check the Makefile, I find there are some things can improved.
You should add the DESTDIR variable, this will good for pack the
executable file.
I own create the folder "obj" and "bin" it will good for compile.

Simulate color blindness/defects?

Original issue 39 created by thezbyg on 2011-05-31T08:24:16.000Z:

When creating color schemes it would be very useful to know which colors may not display properly for those with color blindness/defects. More information on what types there are can be found here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_blindness

Additionally, for ideas of how this might be implemented take a look at this website http://colorschemedesigner.com/ (under the Colorblind tab) and at Scribus (I use 1.5)

Does not work with Windows due to missing DLLs

Original issue 43 created by thezbyg on 2011-06-19T22:32:02.000Z:

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Installed
2. Attempt to run the program

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Program should start. Instead it displays an error concerning the missing DLL "libcairo-2.dll"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Window 7 - 64 bit

Please provide any additional information below.
This DLL is not included in Windows 7 and must be included in your installer for it to be functional. It appears as if a large number of DLLs that are not installed in Windows and are not included in the installer are required. It looks like it may require the entire GTK+.

[Feature Request] Inserting values in color scheme generator

Original issue 13 created by thezbyg on 2009-10-20T13:21:30.000Z:

This is not an issue. This is a feature request.
Currently, it seems we can't insert color hex values directly inside color
scheme generator (unless i miss it somewhere). Will it be integrated in
next release ? Is it planned ?
This feature will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your answer !

SConscript: dbus-glib-1 >= 0.76

Original issue 10 created by thezbyg on 2009-09-10T10:26:39.000Z:

I am not sure but I think that the dbus-glib-1 in SConscript should be ">=
0.76", not ">= 0.76-1"

:)

scons -c should not check dependencies (minor issue)

Original issue 4 created by thezbyg on 2009-08-20T14:49:00.000Z:

This is a minor issue. I was trying to make a debian source package (not a
binary one), but when I run "scons -c" to clean the targets, it checks for
build-dependencies. I might be wrong, but I think that the check during
cleanup isn't required.

Is there any way I can disable the build-dependency check during cleanup?
