PANTONE, Benjamin Moore, Other Palettes

[Gregory SCOTT Souchock 0]

Discovered today that AutoCAD apparently has these color books of palettes that can be loaded. Found out by ordering color samples on the Benjamin Moore website. It would be REALLY HELPFUL to many, many users if VW had color palettes more akin to Photoshop, Illustrator, FreeHand, Indesign, Quark, and so forth. And if we can import the values of paint systems like BM way, way cool and useful. We can, and do now, customize our palette by finding the RGB values, and entering them by hand, and hoping we pick the one from the palette in the right location. But isn't it time that VW gets some similar functionality to those other software mentioned. It's not a dealbreaker but especially for us in EGD it would be a GIGANTIC HELP.

Thanks,

Scott

Please, please. BM at least and hopefully other quality paints like Pratt and Lambert, Pitsburgh etc.

Having this feature would ROCK! Perhaps a "simple" way would be for VW to have a dedicated path into/out of Photoshop. Programmes like MAYA & Painter have this ability. I think the need to employ FORM Z( or other similar programmes) AND photoshop would be greatly reduced if this pathway existed.

Better colour support would solve a lot of problems in our office, but I assume it's no trivial matter to implement (at least cross-platform).

Actually, OSX Cocoa just calls the NSColorPicker ... bingo ... no bigga deal.
