HTMLcolor
v1.2
Freeware

What's new in version 1.2?

- Changed caption to include a minimize button.
- Changed zoom factors from 1/2/4 to 2/4/8.
- Added freeze function (hit Ctrl to freeze/unfreeze).
- Added nudge cursor function (Alt + Arrows).
- Added shortcuts (+/-) to change zoom factor.
- Added some helpfull text to the window.

What is it?

Use this small app to pick up any color from the screen as HTML code (i.e. C0E3E3), HTML color name (i.e. Blue) or as RGB (i.e. 126,212,255). The app shows an enlarged picture of the local area around the cursor and a sample of the color under the cursor. When you find the right color you just hit F1, F2 or F3 to put the code you want onto the clipboard.
You can freeze the picture by hitting the Ctrl key (repeat to unfreeze).
To move the cursor around one pixel at a time hold down the Alt key and use the arrow keys to move (nudge) the cursor.
Of course HTMLcolor has to have focus (click the window) for all this to work.


Screen shot


Clicking the little button with the question sign opens a list of shortcut keys.


How to install

Unzip the files to an empty directory. There's just an exe-file (and this html), no runtime files. Check that a sub-directory named 'Help' has been created; otherwise unzip again with the option for creating the stored sub-directory.

How to uninstall

Just delete htmlcol.exe itself and its directory. Nothing is left in the registry since HTMLcolor doesn't use it.
