Working now -- but, in the list, the HTML colors are not showing up. It has the word HTML, but there is no value. There is for Hex though.

OK, now I had a quick look at it - and some comments:

- I think you need to provide an easy way to copy color codes to Clipboard, e.g. by
doubleclicking the relevant code in the GUI

- It's a bit annoying that Pixy does not turn up in the list of open programs. It's a
pain in the *** to find it again if it goes behind other windows

- There's a lot of flickering in Follow Mouse mode. Perhaps you don't need to update everything every
few tics. I'd suggest that you check for mouse movement, if mouse isn't moved, don't update
color bars etc.

- It should save its MODE settings, so you don't have to set those every time.

- I've had 2 lock-ups in the Trial Notification box. A couple of crashes when tickling it a bit
by clicking several times consecutively in the Blend bar.

Hope it helps ya

Dread

PS: Those were the negative things - lot's of good stuff there too Razz

I am taking on board Dr. Dreads comments and working it into the program. This will take a few days.

You can use the updated version above: Pixy: 2.3.3 pro.

Nathan - thanks for the constructive comments Smile
