A Chrome extension that makes you pick up any pixel color from a web page.

• Inspired from Chrome devtool’s color picker.
• Toggle the color inspector by Ctrl+Shift+A (Command+Shift+A for mac).
• Click and copy the color hex.

Why?

Most of the color picker extensions have these drawbacks:

• Most of them are aimed at picking DOM colors. Can not pick colors from an image.
• Not efficient when users only want to pick colors.

How to use

Install the extension and toggle the color inspector by Ctrl+Shift+A (Command+Shift+A for mac). That’s it.

How it works

Mainly it uses captureVisibleTab API to the take the page screenshot. The image data is then rasterized and pixel colors are ready to use.
