Thanks a lot for your kind comments :smiley:

Awesome, can you mimic all other parts of Adobe Photoshop so that we
can have a cross platform version ?? :wink:

Uhm, I think Adobe will sue me if I try to implement their patented widgets :smiley:

A small issue, I don't know if this is due to my platform though.
When I push the cursors of the sliders to the far top, I cannot catch them
again or it is very difficult to catch them because they are partly drawn.
Only the lower border of the black rectangle is visible.

Yes, you're right, it happens also on my platform. I'll get it fixed. Thanks!

Allow me two proposals:
- Having the buttons Ok and Cancel located in the lower right corner seems
to be "more natural".
- Closing / canceling a dialog window with an ESC is welcome.

No problem about that, it will be easy to implement them.

If you to set more than just a few colors,
it's very handy that you can collect these colors,
so after selecting the right set of colors,
each component really gets the same color,
without writing down all those hex numbers.

I understand your point Stef... the only problem I see is that there
is no more space (in terms of screen space) to add the standard
Windows/Linux colours palette left... but any idea about that is
welcome!

Thank you again.

Andrea.

I thought Stef meant not standard colors but user-selected (custom)
colors. The "Edit Colors" dialog on Windows (see MS Paint) has a grid
of 16 little boxes that would not take up much more room, that user-
selected colors are placed in. These persist from call to call of the
color dialog while MS Paint is open.

Thanks for reading my comment.
And your component is almost too beautiful to do any suggestion,...
.. but still: in the top right corner there's some space left.

Another point, I tried your alternative wxPython demo,
first it couldn't find "images.py" but that might be a bad install from
my site,
then I don't see your "fancier tabs", I don't see any tab at all :frowning:
If you need more information let me know.

As your components are really beautiful, I'll certainly will try more of

your components !

cheers,
Stef Mientki
