Wow!.. A lot of colors.. who need a brush?..
Great job friend! Thanks for share?

Some changes were made. Just wanted to draw your attention to this. It's like... to quote a to some people well-known paint artist:

"Shoot! Let's get crazy!"



R.I.P.

Let me dedicate this program to Bob Ross as well as to the millions of people who contribute more than a letter to Wikipedia.

Yeah, i know I'm pretty exploiting this topic but then again, to the displeasement of some people, I still want to share this advancement with you.

Thanks so much es_91 for your sharings

I haven't tested the desktop-funs yet as it's for WIN and I dare not risk my settings ... but with the new installation coming soon, I'll give it a go.

... especially to tune in with your dedication to Bob Ross, who also fascinated me some years ago

cheers ~ Vera

Very useful, thanks for sharing!

btw, what I'm doing with it is I changed all '#' to '#WCOLOR_' so #AcidGreen becomes #WCOLOR_AcidGreen etc. and compiled the file to a resident. Now I don't have to mess with includes and I can type #WC in the ide and Autocomplete will show me a list of all the wiki colors so I can browse them and pick one. I usually can't remember exact names so this is very efficient. Thanks again

Oh, be careful! The names have not been checked by me individually and feedback from the forums has me only correcting a very few names ... perhaps there is more confusing stuff in the list...

/edit: Btw I'm curious, what do you have to do to create a resident file? Is it easy? This might not be the right place to talk about a how to, but maby you could provide a little link or something. If it is harder, maybe you could do me and some others a favour by sharing this resident file?

/edit: And another thing. Some colors in the list are missing: the once so important MS-DOS colors...

here is a list, containing the constants:

Wow!
Quite the list...Thanks..Vern

I realize that I may be suggesting the impossible,
but it would be extremely useful if whenever the mouse pointer was outside the application's window
that the color value of the pixel under the pointer be displayed and mapped to a display of the nearest list color or three.
Clicking the mouse button (hold if necessary so as not to do anything unnecessary elsewhere)
would keep the last detected color(s) visible in the app's window.
Then perhaps with the addition of another setting,
the area under the pointer could be expanded to a small circle and the average of colors within the circle be automatically selected from the list and displayed.
Drawing a magnified representation of the region around the mouse pointer within that unused app window area would be much appreciated as well.
