Release notes

What's New

0.13.1

A designed installer: open the DMG and drag ColorPickr onto Applications, following the arrow.
Opened ColorPickr from the installer or Downloads? It offers to move itself to Applications, reopens from there and ejects the installer.
Updates show up in the menu bar: a dot on the eyedropper and an Update button in the panel, with the release notes one click away. No pop-ups while you work.
Settings › Updates can download updates in the background, ready to install when you quit.

Palette Studio (⇧⌘G): press Space for a new palette. Lock the colors you love and reroll the rest. Every roll includes a light and a dark color that are easy to read together.
Contrast Checker: one text color on one background, previewed as headlines, body text, small print and buttons. Pick both from the screen and fix either in one click.
Value Study on mood boards: see your board in grayscale, three values, or light and dark to check a composition before color.
New formats: HSB and CMYK.
New exports: Procreate Swatches, SCSS, Material UI, Flutter, Jetpack Compose and CSV.

ColorBody is now ColorPickr. Same app, new name: your boards, palettes, themes, shortcuts and Screen Recording permission all carry over.
If you turned on "Open when I log in", check it once in Settings › General, since macOS may list the login item under the old name.

Colors from a website waits for the page to finish: loading screens, fonts, images and late content. The colors come from what the page actually shows, including styles added by JavaScript.
While it works, ColorBody shows each step (opening, loading all content, loading images further down, collecting colors) and tells you when a site is taking longer.

Undo and Redo now work from the Edit menu and with ⌘Z and ⇧⌘Z, and the menu names what it will undo.

Undo and redo (⌘Z, ⇧⌘Z) for boards, palettes and themes, including deleted images and boards.
A new first-run guide: pick, collect, make a theme, then start where you like.
What's New opens once after each update.
Your data is backed up automatically before a new version reads it.
Help › Send Feedback opens a report with your versions filled in.

Make Theme now offers four finished themes from your colors (Brand, Calm, Bold and Midnight), shown on a real website, app and dashboard in light and dark. Every one is easy to read before you touch it.
Edit a theme by clicking the preview: click a button, a card or the background and choose its color. A check or a warning tells you if everything stays easy to read, and Make It Readable fixes it.
Themes made from a mood board live on its canvas as a live preview and appear in its brand sheet.

The board canvas is lighter in light mode and a deep gray in dark mode, so your references stand out.
New items wrap into rows instead of running off the side, and new images start larger.
Boards that don't fit the window open zoomed to fit.

Mood boards are now a freeform canvas: drag images anywhere, resize them, add notes, and keep picked colors as chips beside your references. Tidy Up, zoom, and a grid view when you want one.
