Re: Change color plugin
Hans,
thanks for the quick feedback, most helpful.

I've uploaded a new version with two fixes:

  • The plugin now correct alters colors for items with materials where the material is set to its default color.
  • I've set the opacity of the Colors-in-use swatch buttons in an an item in an attempt to fix the lack off fill color in Windows 10.

Note that the version number changed on the jar, so you will need to removed the 0.1 jar and replace it with the 0.2 jar.

The fix for Windows 10 is a guess based on searching for the symptoms using Google (swing button color issues, as is usual for coding problems, I wound up at http://stackoverflow.com/ ). I don't have a Windows 10 system to test this on. It doesn't seem to cause any issues on my Linux system.

I've noticed that the color alpha values (transparency) seem to be ignored, I guess they're part of the model, not the color. I dropped alpha when making comparisons because the default colors didn't seem to have an alpha value. I was going to attempt to change/preserve alpha values, but this didn't seem to do anything useful - my glass doors stayed transparent and my opaque items stayed opaque no mater what the color alpha was set to.
