I had this same issue a few days ago... You have a few options: There is a color history in the "Standard Colors Dialog" - This is the window that pops up when you click the foreground/background in the toolbox. It's the boxes in the lower right corner... If you don't have the fg/bg enabled in the toolbox you can get to it by File > Preferences > Toolbox > Show Foreground/Background...
Other Options: You could: Use the foreground/background as storage areas, but your limited to only two colors... You could: Create a palette to use temporarily, and store your colors there... You could: Create a temporary "color storage layer", and paint small areas that you could pick from with the eye dropper... It would be nice if the color history was quicker to use... I submitted an idea/request here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383083 but it ended up being a solution that wasn't in-line with the way the developers are moving... Maybe someone else can offer some other suggestions to improve this functionality... _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
