Re: Request for help developing a new tool for TOAW
Posted: Tue Jul 25, 2023 6:22 am
Okie Dokie: I've thrown together some code to give you the decimal number of a color you can pick from a color wheel. This is just a temporary toy to give me a chance to see what works. Meanwhile you can convert all the colors to those you want using this toy. I'm trying to find a way to package it up into an executable you can run on
your machine. Give me about 30 minutes to figure that out.
