[Bf-committers] Color Palettes

[Aurel W.]

There is nothing like that in 2.5 and the 16 predefined colors in the
2.49 are not really, what i meant by a real color palette. A set of
colors of arbitrary size, even give colors an alias name, name
palettes and have several palettes stored in your blend file. And to
be able to edit those of course.

Palettes are more than just "bookmarks" for quickly selecting a color
value manually, they can also be used by tools, materials, in shading,
compositing, filters, effects,... and so on.

> The color pallete are the 16 swatches in the color picker, and it has been a long-standing request for those to be saved in the blend file (they currently are not in the file structure). The color picker is the tool that consistenly pops up when colors are needed. Presently, the work around is to create an image in the UV/Image Editor, pack it and use that. Using an image gives a lot more flexibility for examples, naming, and comments, and having a lot more than 16. However, it is a pain to load the working palette of 16 to the color picker from that image (which would make a great macro, actually).
