Overview

How to use it

Changing a face color

To change a face color, click on the square and use the keyboard arrows (left, right, up, down). The color will be changed based on the displayed default colors on top. This is not user friendly but it was a quick win for a first iteration. To be improved in the future.

Changing the default colors

At run time

You can change the available colors by clicking on the color boxes on top

In a configuration file

Create a "colors.json" file at the root of the application and put inside the following content :

{

		"#FFFFFF",
		"#FD8C3C",
