The Standard Gimp Color Selector
You can change the color manually, by clicking on a hue in the spectrum color field to the right, and then dragging the cross in the large color box on the left to the exact color you want. If you want a specific RGB or HSV color, you can type the exact value in the HSV or RGB parameter fields, or you can drag the sliders to specify a color. The H (Hue) channel is displayed in the color fields by default when you open the Color Selection dialog. However, you can choose to search in another channels for the color you want. It can be very useful to change the channel to S(saturation) or V(value) when you searching for a specific color. The color spectrum will be displayed in a quite different way by doing this and you might find it useful. In the bottom of the dialog you will find the current color specified as a Hex Triplet. The function is targeting Web developers and to get the color code into your HTML code simply select it and paste it in with your middle mouse button. (In Windows you must use Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V to achieve the same result) ### Additional Information For further information see The Gimp User's Manual page XXXX and the Gimp User's Tutorial page YYYY Shortcut Key Modifier Drag and Drop Xinput ----DEV---- Index (/dialogs/color_selectors/built_in.html) Sorry but the help file for built_in is not yet done. /Karin & Olof
