Swatches is a simple colour palette utility for getting variations on a colour.
To use Swatches, type or paste a hexadecimal colour code into the text entry, with or without a hash mark. You'll then be given two columns of colours. The left column offers changes in luminence only, while the right column gives difference in brightness.
- One-click copying from any of the colour swatches
- Quickly switch between RGB and hexadecimal colour values
- Remembers your preference for hex or rgb between uses
- Remembers the last colour you checked when reloading the app
- Toggle relative luminance adjustment
- Toggle visibility of labels
Thank you to welaq for the Lithuanian localisation and to Marco Carrizales for translating the app into Spanish. I'm grateful for their contributions.
