Flameshot: Black and white colors in the color picker

Created on 24 Nov 2017  Â·  12Comments  Â·  Source: flameshot-org/flameshot

Hey, great app!

Would you consider adding _white_ and _black_ colors to the color-picker-wheel-thingy?

Sometimes I want to remove text or graphics from my screenshots, and the available colors make this a bit awkward.

@wjtk4444 Currently you may use the color picker in the sidebar to choose white and black.

I plan to add a menu in the configuration window where you can edit the colors of that widget.

Is this feature still wip?

Yes, it will be implemented soonâ„¢, I'm just kinda busy with life stuff and working on other projects.

Still WIP? Can't find it anywhere in options.

Press space to open the sidebar in case you were confused like me.

Can the sidebar store presets? It seems to indicate so since it shows a list with the entry <empty>

You can customize colors in your ini file. For example, add the following line:

userColors=#800000, #ff0000, #ffff00, #00ff00, #008000, #00ffff, #0000ff, #ff00ff, #800080, #ffffff, #000000

Anyway I agree that black and white should be there by default.

adding the above to my ini file breaks flameshot

Since the color picker is now added through the spacebar I think that is a good balance of simplicity in the color wheel, and customizability in the color picker.
