Hex Color Picker

Hex Color Picker is a super handy, free app that helps you grab and tweak those tricky hexadecimal HTML color codes right from the standard Mac OS X color panel. If you're into web design or programming, you know how important it is to get your colors just right. But guess what? Sometimes those codes can be hard to find in the Mac OS X color panel itself!

Why You Need Hex Color Picker

So, what do you usually have to do? Fire up Photoshop just to get a six-digit code? Or maybe spend ages calculating it with Calculator's hex mode and TextEdit? Yeah, we’ve been there too—it’s no fun at all!

Easy Access to Color Codes

No worries! Hex Color Picker swoops in with an extra tab in the system-wide color panel. Now, you can quickly see the hex color code for any shade and edit it using some simple shortcuts. Problem solved!

Quick Shortcuts for Colors

This tool comes packed with cool shorthands that let you enter hex codes faster. You can use just 1, 2, or 3 digits instead of typing out the full six-digit string. Plus, if you're familiar with HTML/CSS color names like hotpink or orange, you're in luck! It even gives you a live preview of the colors.

Your Preferences Matter

The best part? Hex Color Picker adapts to your style. Whether you like lowercase or uppercase letters for your codes is totally up to you!
