FAQ

The app does not show up in the menu bar

macOS hides menu bar apps when there is no space left in the menu bar. This is a common problem on MacBooks with a notch. Try quitting some menu bar apps to free up space. If this does not solve it, try quitting Bartender if you have it installed.

What is LCH color?

It's a more human-friendly color format.

Note that the LCH color is currently clamped to sRGB range.

The color changes if I copy and then paste it

That is because the default color space in the picker is Display P3, which is part of CSS Color 4, but the color space used for the legacy CSS color formats is sRGB (browsers are starting to handle color spaces but they are not all there yet).

How do I change the color space?

Right-click the color wheel. You probably want to select “sRGB”.

Note that the color strings will always be converted to sRGB color space.

Can you support SwiftUI.Color / UIColor / NSColor formats?

The best practice is to use Asset Catalog for colors instead of hard-coding the values in code. If you really want to hard-code colors, the Scala color picker plugin supports UIColor and NSColor.

Can I contribute localizations?

I don't have any immediate plans to localize the app.
