Color Chooser?

[fanatic]

Hi there,

I have the same problem, no solution yet !

And is it possible to somehow get it to remember the custom swatches at the top after changing them?

And while we are at it, let me add one too! :p

Is it possible to bind the popup of the 'color chooser' to a hotkey? Or even better, a hotkey with the color picker (like the photoshop alt-key) for when I'm painting with the 3d paint tool...

When I open the script window and use 'echo all command' it doesn't show anything for the popup of the color chooser.

I had a quick hunt around for any startup or AE scripts in the Maya folders, but with no luck.

I did, however notice that there is a MEL command to create your own color chooser

`colorEditor`;

It won't be hard to make a hotkey for this, but as to linking the colour you choose to any current operation, I have no idea how it'll work. Maybe it's automatic?

I have a feeling then that the way the color chooser looks in regard to the RGB/HSV preference) is a tad on the "hard-wired" side of things.

/c.

Nope it's not I'm afraid. I can't stay and help much right now but perhaps what I've attached will help some of you.

I've attached a script I wrote for creating my own colour chooser, so that I could quickly change the camera environment colour for the current viewport.

I use it as a shelf button. When you're creating the colour chooser you have to code in which is the default mode (HSV or RGB) I think....and you tell it what values in Maya to update.
