Description Ahab Greybeard 2021-01-06 11:47:12 UTC
SUMMARY
This Wishlist bug is following on from a discussion in this topic:
https://krita-artists.org/t/assistance-for-colour-blind-artists/15912

It is closely associated with a palette UI/UX bug report which I believe would need to be dealt with at the same time or before:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431220

DESCRIPTION
When the cursor is moved over a palette swatch, the tooltip shows the internal colour name of the swatch.
(Subject to the limitations described in the bug report noted above.)

It would be helpful, especially for users with colour perception problems, if the tooltip also showed the (R, G, B) value of the swatch colour.

One possibility would be as a second line of tooltip text.

Hm, if my hunch that the string being the same causes the tooltip weirdness is correct, adding the channel values might actually fix the bug.

Add channel values to the palette swatch tooltip

With this change, I cannot reproduce the tooltips not moving
their position.
