Colour Picker

Dear Xara...

Could you add a right-click action on the Colour Picker to pick the Line Colour.

So much simpler for use.

And whilst you are at it, a keystroke such as Alt to enable the picker instead of having to click on it.

Acorn, if you right click on the color wheel icon it opens the Color Editor to in the Line Color mode.

Another day I've learnt something new ... Thank you again Gary. A most useful tip!

Once the line colour is selected in the Colour Editor, then picking the "eyedropper" allows you to change the line colour. BRILLIANT.

Also nice to have quick way of reversing line and fill colours, perhaps just by clicking the 'current colour, fill & text background' icon on the far left of the colour bar.

@Xara, the point is your UX is very poor on the colour bar.

Click a colour to change the Fill. Shift-click a colour to change the Line colour.
Click the Colour Editor to open for the current Fill. Alt-click the Colour editor to open for the current Line.
Click the Picker to change the Fill. Nothing else.

I do like the idea of clicking on the selected colours box to toggle Fill and Line. Good idea Jono.
