Actual Results:  
nothing happens

Expected Results:  
palette should load
Comment 1 Halla Rempt 2016-08-22 21:13:56 UTC
Krita only loads gpl, riff, aco and act palettes. Krita has never supported loading css files as palettes -- so this isn't a bug, but a feature request. In any case, just save your palette as gpl, and you can load it in Krita.

(Also, Ubuntu's 2.9.7 is very old, we're at 3.0 now.)
Comment 2 Philippe Lhoste 2018-03-26 08:51:26 UTC
Now that Krita 4 is out, it sounds like a good candidate for a Python script. Should be easy to do, I guess.
Comment 3 Tiar 2020-04-07 13:51:09 UTC
It can be inside Krita's code if it's important for Krita to have it, or if someone declares to maintain it (fix bugs if some comes up in later years).

I got working on this. I have the most basic implementation working (4 RGB swatches and using the file name as the palette name), and I'll make sure it works with anything that could come up before I submit it.

Implement CSS Palette support

Add the possibility to import CSS palette in Krita, in the same way
as the .gpl ones. Those palettes can be generated by GIMP or created
by the user, but the only property considered is "color".

The following color format is supported (based on their CSS syntax) :
    - rgb
    - rbga
    - hsl
    - hsla
    - hexadecimal

The file's suffix must be ".css".
If there is an error in the syntax or the color definition, errors
will be raised and the palette loading aborted.
