Alexandre Prokoudine responded: Where in UI do you envision it? Thank you. Maybe just under the "color model" window in the "Edit Color" flyout. GIMP has it in a similar location. Owen responded: I think the general wisdom would be to preview web pages in a browser, Firefox, Safari, Chrome etc Thanks for the advice. As someone with lots of experience in print, and virtually none in web, I find it easier to put together proposed web pages in Scribus, and have the general theme/look approved before beginning the coding in html and css. Of course I use all the browsers, including ie, to preview the html. As for hex colors, you can make your own palette, if one does not already exist. I could certainly make a palette of attractive colors for the web pages, but I wouldn't know their hex values to transfer them to css. I know there are workarounds, including making a palette in GIMP and writing down the hex values, but then I couldn't plug those numbers into Scribus to get an accurate color. Creating a palette isn't the issue. -- -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
