Possible to have both 'Palette' and 'Chromatic Wheel' Color panels open at same time?

Post by mikdog »

Hi there, I'm wondering please if it'd be possible to have more than one color panel open at the same time, like 'Mixer' and 'Chromatic Wheel' or 'Swatches' and 'Mixer' etc.
So far it seems I've only been able to have one open at a time.
I've hacked it a bit by taking a screenshot of my palette and adding it as a layer, but, not ideal imo.

two alternatives for this, that have the advantage you can place them anywhere in the interface.:
(both still need switching to colorpicking mode to get the color)

- a custompanel with actions that only contain the A-color
position stays relative to the interface

- a guideline image
position stays relative to the project

Aaaah, clever, thank you! I think I should be able to try figure out both of these solutions. Thanks Peter!

Just wanted to say thanks, Peter - I created a custom panel and it's a great solution.
