# What is Quick Color Menu?

A simple, lightweight, Context Menu for Quickly Storing and Pasting *HEX* and *RGB* Color Codes Snippets.

Made for any artists or designers who needs a keep a collection of your favorite color palettes nearby.

Leave it running in the background so it can be launched with a **customizable hotkey**, when clicking a menu item you can have one of four default actions carried out...

1. Paste a HEX code

2. Copy a HEX code to your clipboard

3. Paste a RGB code

4. Copy a RGB code to you clipboard

5. ** **It has an added bonus of being able to Change (and save from) the colors in Windows Standard Color Picker Dialog Boxes with one click!**

# Adding colors to QCM

There is a dynamic sub-menu, `+ Add Color` on main menu.
1. **Add Color** opens an input box that accepts HEX & REB color codes without prefixes.
    - If your clipboard has a color code it when clicking this item it will skip the input box and add it automatically.
2. **Add From Screen** will follow you mouse and add a color after you click.

The next 3 items appear dynamically

3. **Add From Clipboard**, if a HEX or RGB is in your clipboard this item appears, one click will add it.
3. If a **Add Color Picker Window** is active this menu item appears and it reads and adds the color via the RGB values.
4. **Add via ShareX**
    - If [ShareX](https://getsharex.com) is installed the menu can run ShareX's color picker, after clicking with ShareX it puts the color code in your clipboard which QCM will copy it into the menu.
5. **Run Color Picker**, Paste the path to your favorite Color picker app in the settings files and this menu item will appear allowing you launch it from them menu.
	- There are sssooooo many of these, I prefer the simplicity of [Just Color Picker](https://annystudio.com/software/colorpicker/). It's  freeware & QCM can read the color its displaying.

- ShareX and the Color Picker items hide themselves unless the apps paths are set in the settings file.

# Removing Colors from QCM

To remove one color at a time there a hotkey you can use when the menu is open.

Alternatively you can use the Menu Layout Panel in the  Settings Window ***OR*** Directly edit the `[ColorMenuLayout]` section in the -SETTINGS.ini file for quicker

    - The menu can show color tiles between 16 and 72 pixels.
4. Clean Out the `/Color Menu Tiles` Folder
    - The menu makes sample color tiles in `.png` format.  When you remove colors from the menu the tiles remain in the folder. If you start getting blank for wrong colored tiles on the menu, cleaning out unused color samples can fix it. the folder will be deleted and only the current menu colors will be remade.
5. Create a Start Menu link
6. Set QCM to Run at Start Up.
    - Makes a shortcut in `%appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup`
7. plus, basics e.g. open settings window, reload & exit app, webpage link, open app folder and edit settings.ini

## **When a Standard Windows Color Picker Window is active QCM will see it and change its behavior!**
