These tools come with the ScenePainter archive. They do not need to be downloaded.

Pipette

The Pipette allows evaluation of the color of single pixels. The dialog shows the zoomed portion of the scene around the cursor. The HEX values of the pixel targeted by the crosshair and its position in the scene are shown in numerical values. By pressing the ALT key, the crosshair can be locked in its current position unti the key is pressed again. This allows using the mouse without losing the chosen pixel.

With the color picker also provided in this dialog the values of a certain color can be retrieved. By default the color picker is set to the color of the currently selected pixel.

Coloring

Coloring allows the creation of custom color definitions. In the tree the required branch is selected. A new ID and a name for the list are assigned. Last thing is the base color. The tool transforms the values, so the color can be used properly.

If one or more color definitions were added, it is recommended to restart SP to apply the changes. Predefined definitions cannot be overwritten.

To delete a custom color colordefs.xml needs to be edited directly. After that SP should also be restarted. see Folder structure

Finder

Finder lists all existing resources alphabetically. The list can be filtered and only ressources matching the provided string somewhere caseinsensitive are shown.
