qView Feature Request: Color Picker / Reader

I don't know if this fits within the scope of qView, but I would love to see a "Color Picker" Feature. Something like ImageGlass has, where you can select the "Color Picker" and then click somewhere on the image to get the HEX and RGB value. I find myself quite often wanting to find out what the color value is on different areas, and not having to open the image in Krita or similar would be amazing. :)

(I prefer qView a lot over ImageGlass if you are wondering why I don't switch.) :D

Hey, I'm glad to hear you are liking qView. I think this is a good suggestion that I will definitely consider for the future. I would be more apt to use a separate program for picking the color personally, but I can definitely see how this would be useful if you did it often. Thank you for your feedback!

I also think its better fit for another program, I currently use pixie for this, it's perfect. Linux users have a lot of alternatives for color picking programs too.

I do not plan to implement this currently, so in the interest of reducing the quantity of open issues, I will close this. Thank you for your suggestion nonetheless.
