ICRA
Interactive Color Range Analyzer is a Tkinter-based desktop tool for highlighting customised colour ranges in images.
Load a single photo or an entire folder, fine-tune hue/saturation/value sliders, and export overlays complete with quick statistics.

Features

  • Two synced previews (original + overlay)
  • Hue/Sat/Value sliders with presets and image colour picker
  • Exclusion rectangles or freehand polygons that persist while browsing
  • Theme toggle (light/dark) with rounded toolbar buttons and accent-aware highlights
  • Folder support with wrap-around previous/next navigation
  • Quick overlay export (PNG) with configurable defaults and language settings via config.toml

Requirements

  • Python 3.11+ (3.10 works with tomli)
  • uv for dependency management
  • Tkinter (install separately on some Linux distros)

Setup with uv (Windows PowerShell)

git clone https://git.lukasmahler.de/lm/ICRA.git
cd ICRA
uv venv
source .venv/Scripts/activate
uv pip install .
uv run icra

The launcher copies Tcl/Tk resources into the virtualenv on first run, so no manual environment tweaks are needed. On macOS/Linux activate with source .venv/bin/activate instead.

Workflow

  1. Load an image (🖼) or a folder (📂).
  2. Pick a colour (🎨 dialog, 🖱️ image click, or preset swatch).
  3. Finetune sliders; watch the overlay update on the right.
  4. Toggle freehand mode () or stick with rectangles and mark areas to exclude (right mouse drag).
  5. Move through folder images with ⬅️ / ➡️; exclusions stay put unless you opt into automatic resets.
  6. Save an overlay (💾) when ready.

Project Layout

  app.py          # main app assembly
  gui/            # UI, theme, picker mixins
  logic/          # image ops, defaults, config helpers

Localisation

  • English and German translations ship in app/lang. Set the desired language via the top-level language key in config.toml.

Development

  • Quick check: uv run python -m compileall app main.py
  • Contributions welcome; include screenshots for UI tweaks.
