## Notepad++ Quick Color Picker

The C++ Color Picker class can also be reused in other programs.

[[Download from Amazon Mirror]](https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/nppqcp/nppqcp-2.0.zip)

[Original Plugin](https://github.com/nulled666/nppqcp) was [abandoned](https://github.com/nulled666/nppqcp/issues/30#issuecomment-471243027).

## Compatibility

QuickColorPicker 2.2.1.1 and newer requires Notepad++ 8.4.6 or newer.

Newer versions of Notepad++ use [`SC_TECHNOLOGY_DIRECTWRITE`](https://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaDoc.html#SCI_SETTECHNOLOGY)
which causes the inline color underlines to not display.  If you have a
scripting plugin, you can disable `SC_TECHNOLOGY_DIRECTWRITE` for the buffer
with QuickColorPicker manually.

### [PythonScript](https://github.com/bruderstein/PythonScript/)

```
editor.setTechnology(TECHNOLOGY.DEFAULT)
```

### [NppExec](https://github.com/d0vgan/nppexec)

```
SCI_SENDMSG SCI_SETTECHNOLOGY SC_TECHNOLOGY_DEFAULT
```

## Updates

### v2.1

- Updated to parse Notepad++ XML theme files.  Now recognizes the follwing:

+ #ff0000
    + #ff0000 more text
    + #ff0000;
    + #ff0000.
    + (#ff0000)
    + "#ff0000"
    + \<some_tag\>#ff0000\</some_tag\>
    + olor="#ff0000"
    + rgb(255,0,0)
    + rgba(255,0,0,0)
    + hsl(255,0%,0%)
    + hsla(255,0%,0%,1)
