[issue45270] Clicking "Add to Custom Colors" adds same colour multiple times

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy  added the comment:

You added the same file twice.  Once was enough.

To repeat: IDLE has no knowledge of color chooser.  The Custom Colors bar is 
Windows specific.  There is no such thing on macOS.


PS: when responding by email, please delete the quoted message.  It is 
redundant and therefore noise when posted on the web page.

[issue45270] Clicking "Add to Custom Colors" adds same colour multiple times

Pramod  added the comment:

I understand that, but is it possible to keep only unique colors in the
Custom Color palette, and when user chooses the exact same color to be in
the Custom Color palette it would return a pop up like "Color already in
Custom Color palette".

It would be better if the color strings which IDLE receives, are checked if
present already in Custom Colors, if not it then passes it to tkinter and
tk.

Sorry for adding my file again. Can you please state the reason for
removing the file Mr. Terry J Reedy , was it because I haven't signed the
Contributor Agreement at that time? But now that I have signed it, can I
add thehttps://bugs.python.org/file50298/python bug 1.png file again?

IDLE has nothing to do with the operation of the color chooser.  IDLE calls a 
tkinter function that calls a tk functions that calls the OS Window Manager 
color chooser.  The choice you make is returned to IDLE as a color string that 
IDLE can later pass to tkinter and tk.  What you see on Windows, in your image 
is the MS Windows 10 color chooser.  The macOS color chooser is *completely* 
different.

The Windows Custom Color bar presumes that you make a small set of 
distinguishable custom colors.  The main use in IDLE would be if you create a 
custom backgound color that you want to use for multiple foreground/background 
pairs.  The use in Windows would be if you have a custom palette that you want 
to use for multiple applications.

[issue45270] Clicking "Add to Custom Colors" adds same colour multiple times

[Pramod]

New submission from Pramod :

When customising my Python IDLE (in Options>Configure IDLE>Highlights>Choose 
color for:), if I choose a color from the palette and click on the button "Add 
to Custom Colors" multiple times, all my existing colors are replaced by a 
single color one by one, instead I feel it would be better if Python gave a 
popup saying something like "the selected color already exists in Custom 
colors".
