Quebecsoft Color Detector1.0

Designing web pages and visual design elements for programs requires a bit more than just an idea for the base structure. For instance, colors might be needed under corresponding code, which can be of various formats. To help you out, Quebecsoft Color Detector lets you generate the code of any pixel on screen.

Lightweight and easy to use

One of the main advantages is portability, and this is because the application can be your personal color picker which you can easily carry around on a thumb drive, since no setup is required to make it run. What’s more, it doesn’t make any changes to system registry entries, so you don’t have to worry about the health status of the target PC.The window shows up on launch, updating its result fields as you move the cursor. Several panels are clearly delimited, and neatly display the set of coordinates under the cursor, RGB color values, a small preview of the detected color, as well as RGB and HEX code values.

Freeze colors and copy codes to clipboard

All values update in real time and shows the color of the pixel right under the mouse pointer. This might seem difficult to grab a single color, but there’s a hotkey toggle key to freeze and unfreeze the current color read. This is shown in an info panel to prevent you from getting stuck along the way.The only method of picking colors is from the screen, because there’s no built-in palette of colors, and modifying RGB values doesn’t change the preview color or corresponding code. Once frozen, values can be sent to clipboard at the press of a button.

In conclusion

Bottom line is that a variety of tools are required when designing visual elements for computer programs, and color picking is an important part. Quebecsoft Color Detector might feel a little lightweight, but it’s sure to provide the appropriate RGB or HEX color code for any color on screen, and with little effort.
