Advanced color palettes

Palettes currently can have a name and a list of colors without alpha. The 10 firsts colors are numbered from 1 to 9 to 0.

I would love to see a few new features to that useful tool:

  • Replace visible numbers by custom name on hover (if have custom name) → be able to search for a name
  • Be able to define colors with alpha
  • Be able to categorize colors within a palette (eg. palette = seasons, categories = winter, summer…) → a color have 0 or 1 category

If a file extension related to that does not exists, I would suggest .pixip (pixi + p of palette). - custom file extension to not mix with txt, json, or idk what files.

Thanks for ideas, if we decide to improve the color palette management I’ll consider that.

The main reason why palettes don’t support alpha is due to the fact that it’s not a common thing to do. Most of the palette formats don’t support it, although It’s a artificial limitation when it comes to drawing. There’s nothing preventing us from adding it as a editor feature.
