black and white BlendMode color ColorCircle ColorPicker donut palette RGB
Color Picker Not Boring Anymore
For my next project, I needed some lightweight color picker that would be usable but not boring. Nice challenge. So I have created ColorCircle class that may work as a color picker while it dispatches all the necessary ColorCircleEvent-s. I made this class a little dynamic, so you can create custom color pickers on runtime using RGB palette, Black to White fade, solid color or current color with any defined radius (inner + outer) you want.
To create donut shapes I have used shape with lineStyle+drawCircle+cacheAsBitmap drawed over original graphics using BlendMode.ALPHA. To browse RGB pelette there is a paletteColor() method that crawls all color spectrum based on position (0 to 1).
