The Color Selector Needs to be Made More Precise

It's hard to get the colors you want, because there are 100 different possibilities for each bar. Don't reduce it, but you could put buttons on the ends that you can click to move the slider by 1 point at a time.

Indeed, that could make selecting colors easier, so support. Or, we could also have the ability to use the arrow keys to move pixel by pixel.

Indeed. That could be better than buttons, too.

Support.

Sometimes I even slide the color to, say, 50, and then when I check back, I see it was set to 51. The arrow key suggestion is good, but I've also thought maybe you could just manually type in the number.

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.

That'd also be a great way to do it.

Hey, that too! That'd be another way to select an accurate value.

Support!
This would be soooo handy! The 3.0 color selection thing can be a little difficult sometimes and this would help a lot.

I support inserting the numbers, but I don't support the arrows/arrow keys simply because it just clutters it up.

Both of those ideas sound great to me!

An artwork (bitmap) of mine was once messed up because there are two different colors at 50,100,100!
