This is a tool that I wanted as soon as I saw it, a year or more ago.Pros:- Very nice drag\/drop\/draw connectors interface.- Gradients work beautifully.- I like how dragging a connector lets you move both end nodes at once.Bugs:- Double-clicking on a connector to create a new node does not make the new node the color that you double-clicked on; sometimes it was also much darker than the average of the two end nodes (e.g., adding a node between bright orange and black gave a very, very dark brown instead of a medium-lightness brown)- Relatedly, there is no easy way to sample intermediate colors. To find the hex code of an intermediate color I had to take a screenshot, paste that into Photoshop, and sample with the eyedropper.- Sometimes I was unable to delete a selected object with the Delete key, and had to use the right-click menu.Suggestions:- It might be nice to show the grid when a node is being dragged--it was sometimes hard to tell where something would go until I released it- It would be lovely to have a hex grid option, but I *completely* understand if it would be too much work.. UPDATE:The bugs I mentioned below have been fixed almost immediately. Really impressed with the quick response from the developer, and the software is fully functional. It still seems a little bit pricey for what you're currently getting, but I can't wait to see what's next for this software and I can fully recommend it.ORIGINAL REVIEW:Only spent a short time with this program so far but I'm going to start with the good: The tool for palette generation is really intiutive. Its pretty simple to figure out, and I was able to generate several interesting and unique palettes very quickly. I think its going to be very useful for me to generate new colour ideas through experimentation, but I haven't been able to use the reference iamge tool yet because of how buggy that part of the program still is.The images I loaded only showed up after I checked the pixel art box, and the colours I tried to sample from it were not accurate: I'm not even sure how to describe that issue: The sampled colours were in grayscale, but darker? And sometimes it showed shades of brown? It was a bit weird, and then it crashed. Had another bug when exporting palettes: the first time I tried exporting a 3 color palette as an Adobe palette it replaced two of the colors with black, leaving me only with red. It worked fine the second time I tried it.In summary, I'm recommending it because of what I think this program's potential is. Once its been stabilized and the bugs mashed out, its going to be very useful. However, I would not recommend buying it at its current price the way it is right now; wait until its recieved a few updates.. I did not spend too much time with this software because I didn't have to. It is fast and easy to use. The color palette I created with this was perfect for pixel art. This software sped up my pixel art workflow by quite a bit. However, I do find it a bit expensive for what it currently can do. Might be a great touch for developers if we could export palettes as HEX and ARGB values into a .txt file or something similar.. Great service! Honestly ever since I got this thing it's my go-to for whenever i'm:-doing a draw-designing a thing-making a character-yesand it genuinely has helped me out a lot with color and trying to make things pop and seeing how it connects and flows n' stuff. It doesn't even have to be pixel art, I haven't (so far) used it for that and it's worked really well for me.. Excellent intuitive tool used for color correction with sanic fast speeds. If you're strugling to find the right palette for your sprite set this is definitely the tool for the job.I dont know what sort of magic went into programming this thing but its algorithm for finding just the right colors is scary to the point where it basically colorpicks better than the artist themselves (with some minor touch ups) ColorTool Build 01: - New Feature: Ability to "Collapse" nodes by pressing Ctrl+Delete- New Feature: Custom Dither Patterns. ColorTool Build 03: - Experimental Mac Support- Support for older Linux versions (Ubuntu 14.04 and up)- Internal: Ported from Godot 3.0 to 3.1- New color space: HCY (Hue, Chromaticity, Luminosity)- Color picker can now be switched between using HSV and HCY- Hotkey for Dragging Connections between colors. (c)- Fixed: Splitting a ramp would sometimes use the wrong color.- Fixed: Linear HSV color space wasn't working as intended.. Beta 1 Bugfix Release: 16 Nov 2018 Fixed Batch Export functionality.12 Nov 2018 Fixed a bug which would cause changes to hotkeys not be saved properly.8 Nov 2018 Fixed a critical bug where multiple canvases stayed active even though their tab wasn't visible, causing unexpected behavior. Fixed a bug where trying to Move, Rotate or Scale without a selection would result in a crash. Fixed a bug where the dither strength would be reset to the default. Fixed a bug where changing the color space of a ramp had no effect. Fixed a bug where using the color picker didn't work properly in Pixel Art mode. Fixed a bug where ColorTool failed to load a file if the extension contained uppercase characters. Fixed a bug where document data stayed in memory after the associated tab was closed. Adjusted some of the defaults to avoid confusion.. ColorTool Build 02: - New Remapping Mode: Basic- Overhaul of the UI theme- Overhaul of the Reference Image UI- Minor UI tweaks- Internal: Effect System- Internal: Improvements to the file format that allows for better forward compatibility- Fixed: Typo that would save .pal as "JASK" files instead of "JASC"- Fixed: Bug that would unexpectedly change the color when changing the color space
