Then just close the screen shot, don't save. In linux I use KColorChooser instead and paste the chosen #color into gimp.

Re: [Gimp-user] Color Picker popup dialog.
Von: Ben Foote [EMAIL PROTECTED] I wasn't aware that holding CTRL while using a paint tool selected a color. I'm not sure many people could possibly be aware of this behavior. Seems a smidge strange, but I'll take it =P This is documented in http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tools-paint.html. The color picker itself is documented in http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tool-color-picker.html, bur a cross reference would indeed be nice. I've opened bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327501 so that it's not forgotten. Michael -- Telefonieren Sie schon oder sparen Sie noch?

Its probably a design problem. have you seen the color picker that is on Toolbox/Dialogs/Colors? it picks one time from the whole desktop. actually, that whole dialog has pretty much replaced all of the other color dialogs for me. it can be docked, i keep mine docked to the toolbox. it has many dialogs within that one dock -- all of the color dialogs. it has taken a little while to change my workflow to use a one time color picker and to avoid the other color dialogs. the one useful feature that the Toolbox color dialog has is the color memory, but i am surprised at how much i do not actually use that. i think that i have even taken the old gimp color picker out of my Toolbox lately. which you can do via Toolbox/Dialogs/Tools -- it works with the viewable toggle the same way that the Layers Dialog works. it sounds like you have been using gimp for a long while. perhaps you might spend a few minutes to look at those dialogs. some of them are really cool and completely different from anything gimp had before. carol ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Color Picker popup dialog.
Hello all, I'm joining/emailing to ask a very important question involving the color picker tool. Is it necessary to have the dialog pop up every time you choose a color with this tool? Is there a way to disable it? I've searched bugzilla, and come up with bug #139349, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139349 I've searched all over the web, and even through the mailing list archive, but I can't seem to find an answer.

Well thankyou for the prompt response Simon. I'm glad to hear that GIMP CVS has this option changed, but also sad to hear that it won't be making its way into 2.2. I wasn't aware that holding CTRL while using a paint tool selected a color. I'm not sure many people could possibly be aware of this behavior.

I am making a web-site for my baby and I have decided to add a fuzzy border to some of the pictures and then I have made a 1 pixel png with the same color and used as a repeating background. For the fuzzy border, I use the Script-Fu Fuzzy Border. But I have not been able to figure out how to select pre-defined color in another session. I find it annoying to have to write down the color settings when I have added it to a palette. There has to be an easier way of doing that ? Thanks in advance.
