I don't like the color system

Open zenspider opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Painting a single color by name is fine... but I want the overall color system to be more intelligent.

Something like providing a knob that you simply turn and get an appropriate color out of it. I don't entirely know what that looks like yet, but it needs to be cleaner than the current system.

What an awful demo... The knob looks so smooth yet the reaction to it is so chunky.

I was thinking something like that, but where the gradient is chosen ahead of time and the turn of the knob is attached to an ivar value or something. I think I kinda want it feeling like xcode wirings... but I don't know what that means yet for this.

I've been constructing rgb colours directly by setting a default proc on colours. And delegating down to screen.format.map_rgba It allows for a nice gradient, here's a video where you can see the colours. And an ss:
