Editorial Review of Color Detector

This is a useful little tool that takes the guesswork out of duplicating colors. Run the program, click anywhere on the screen, and the program will return the RGB values and HTML hex code of the pixel you clicked on. Press F5 to freeze the information long enough to make note of it (since the slightest breeze could change your mouse position). Or use F6 to transfer the current color?s hex code value to the Clipboard.

Theoretically, Color Detector will also tell you the name of the color you're clicking on, but don't get too attached to that idea. Sure, every once in a while, you'll see "Black," "White," or even "Blue" flit by in the color Name field. But the vast majority of colors you'll land on will yield a result of "not found."
