We steadily progress forward through life, but can only understand it backwards. Which is kind of a usability faux-pas. So clearly, what the world needs is more Duality updates. This is a small one, though. But it has pretty pictures in it! Read more

Working with the Duality Editor is always project-related.

Have you ever used the .Net Color Picker Dialog? I did for a while but wasn’t quite content with it. For the Duality Editor, I don’t need any dialog-internal predefined colors and the additional clicks to define and choose a custom color reduce its usability. Also, there is no way to select a color with alpha channel support. After evaluating some other .Net ColorPicker modules out there, I decided to write my own. You can see the result on the right. If you need something similar, feel free to download its source code (Visual Studio Solution) and use it in your own project.
