Description
Gui to convert hexadecimal colors to decimal RGB format and vice versa with a few options for the outputs format (prepend '0x', '#', or nothing to the hexadecimal output and the option to automatically copy the output to the clipboard).
This is a hybrid program; the gui is written in AutoHotkey[1] and the conversion functions are written in C++.
Motivation
I use colors in many things like programming, web design, graphic design, configuration files, and more so I often need to convert the values for the various formats. This tool helps with that.

Usage
Environment
This is a Windows gui tool that can be installed or used portably.
How To Use
Install
An installer is provided in the Releases section that installs this to Program Files in the Flux Color Convert directory. The installer provides a way to uninstall the program like you would any other installable program in Windows and it also creates a program shortcut for your Start Menu and allows creation of a Desktop shortcut.
Portable
You can use this portably if you like, but it negates the conveniences of the installer.
To use portably just download the FluxColorConvert.exe
executable, the contents of ./lib/
directory, and the contents of the ./resources/
directory from the root of this project and place the executable anywhere you like and create the lib
and directories
in the same directory and place the extra files in their corresponding directories.
If you use git you can also just clone this repository and use from there or download the afore mentioned files and directories to wherever you like.
To clone:
git clone "https://github.com/Lateralus138/FluxColorConvert.git"
Examples
Convert the the RGB value 255 127 255
to its correspoding hexadecimal value 0xFF7FFF
prepending with 0x for use in lower level programming and in uppercase rather than the default lower case:
