#eyedropper — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #eyedropper, aggregated by home.social.

  1. #Eyedropper 2.2.0 is out now, bringing support for color picking without
    having the application open. It also now supports RGB in decimal notation
    and improves support for systems without a proper portal setup.

    As always, you can download the latest release from Flathub flathub.org/en/apps/com.github

  2. #Eyedropper now supports the new session restore feature, so it will automatically restore picked colors across reboots.

    Thanks to @AdrianVovk for the excellent guide!

  3. #Eyedropper 2.1.0 has been released, featuring
    - RGB decimal notation
    - support for global shortcuts
    - a new way to directly enter colors, without picking them first

    Download the new version on Flathub: flathub.org/apps/com.github.fi.

  4. If you work with RGB, what format do you prefer?

    Context: I'm thinking about adding support for both to #Eyedropper

  5. Finally took some time to fix one of the biggest issues with #Eyedropper, not being able to use it without first picking a color. Of course, color picking is still available (see the eyedropper button in the headerbar).

  6. After almost a year since the last release, a new version of #Eyedropper is now available.
    It now features a color editor, allowing to directly modify picked colors, a new warning page for unsupported systems (Thanks to @bragefuglseth for the illustration) and a rewritten color conversion backend.

    The new version should be available on Flathub soon.

  7. I'm thinking about release an #Eyedropper this week, since there haven't been any string changes since the last version

  8. Even more hours later, #Eyedropper still looks the same, but instead of adding a new CSS class for each color in the history, it now overwrites the snapshot function.
    Actually, it is surprisingly easy, once I figured out what to do.

  9. I have been experimenting with a new design in #Eyedropper, that easily allows changing the picked color, without editing the raw color values or picking a new one.

    Happy to hear some early feedback :)

  10. If you use #Eyedropper, have you ever changed any of the illuminant settings?
    For context, in the current rewrite, I've been considering dropping the settings to simplify the code, settings UI, and reduce the maintenance required, as I suspect it's not used much, comparatively.

  11. After hours of work, #Eyedropper now has fewer features than before, but also 2k lines of code less.

  12. The latest Fountain Pen video is now available for your viewing pleasure.

    In this video I am exploring some of the common filling mechanisms for fountain pens.

    I briefly discuss them and then give my pros and cons of each.

    You me now to explore them.

  17. I kinda missed it, but #Eyedropper now has over 50k downloads on Flathub. I never thought so many people would use it. Thanks to everyone who uses it and gives feedback.

  18. Me había quejado amargamente hace unos meses porque ningún selector de color parecía funcionar correctamente por causa de incompatibilidad con #Wayland en #Fedora #Linux. Pero acabo de probar la versión 1.0.0 recientemente publicada de #Eyedropper y funciona de lujo.

  19. Looks like there is finally some progress on the #GNOME global shortcut portal. Can't wait to add support for it to #Eyedropper, I feel like it will make the application much more useful.

  20. #Eyedropper users: I'm thinking about the future direction of the app. What's your primary use case for the app?

    Feel free to write a comment with more details and boost it.

  21. For those of you who have always wanted to contribute to #Eyedropper, I've marked two issues as "good first issue" to make it easy to get started.

    Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need help.

Some of the notable features include visual feedback when entering a color, the ability to input any supported color format, a convenient color search function in the overview, a new way to choose the export format for palettes, as well as minor design changes and much more (visit github.com/FineFindus/eyedropp for the full changelog).

    Try it now on #Flathub and send me your feedback!

  24. While I was working on reimplementing the #Eyedropper settings, I made an interesting discovery. It turns out that the move up/down actions change the row position but fails to save the movement to settings. And it took me only 9 months to discover that I forgot to implement this…

  25. Ever wondered how #88C0D0 actually looks like?
    In the next version of #Eyedropper, you'll be able to search and directly view the color in #GNOME's Activities Overview.

  26. I'm excited to announce, that following the acceptance of #Eyedropper in #Gnome Circle, I've joined the @gnome Foundation as a new member.

  27. Here's a small preview of improved user feedback when manually entering a new color in the next version of #Eyedropper. It will now blink with an error/success color. The input can now also be entered by clicking the new apply button.

  28. #Eyedropper v0.6.0 is now available with a lot of smaller improvements and the new app icon.

    I am pleased to announce that with the new release, Eyedropper is joining #GNOME Circle.

    Today is also the day Eyedropper hit over 10k downloads from #Flathub

    Thanks to everyone who contribute, translated and downloaded it. It has been a pleasure developing it so far, and I have some exciting features planned for the future.

  29. I'm planning to release a new version of #Eyedropper before / on Friday, if anyone has a bit of spare time until then and speaks multiple languages, feel free to contribute a new #translation to it or update an old one.
    Visit github.com/FineFindus/Eyedropp for more information.

  30. Thanks to @tbernard, #Eyedropper now has a new icon, which is compliant with #GNOME guidelines. I can't thank him enough, it looks absolutely fantastic!

    It will be available in the next major release, v0.6.0.

  31. #Eyedropper now supports exporting palettes as #Adobe Swatch Exchange (ase) files. Simply use the .ase file extension when exporting and enjoy using it an #Photoshop, Illustrator, etc...
