I've just tried to recompile it. It now works on my computer, but because I don't have an Apple Developer License, I cannot sign it.

Would you mind trying the attached build. If it works I will release it.

Color Picker Plus.colorPicker

Thank you. That build gave a different error:

I guess Apple want everyone to sign with a developer certificate these days.

I guess 😞

Try to go to System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Genral, right after opening the color picker. Sometimes you can allow untrusted software that way.

Otherwise you can build it yourself as a temporary fix. Just download the repo, open Color Picker Plus.xcodeproj in Xcode and press the play button.

I will keep this issue open, until a better solution is found

Ok, I've built it myself. It converted to swift 5 with no apparent problems, by the way. I'm curious as to how other developers manage code signing of open source projects for Mac OS. I guess one contributor with a developer account signs the final build.

Anyway, I'm go to go. Thanks heaps for the colorpicker!
