ColorCalc

ColorCalc is a small Tkinter tool for analysing colour ranges in images. You load a picture, pick or click a reference colour, adjust hue/saturation/value sliders, and the app marks matching pixels while showing quick stats.

Features

  • Two synced previews (original + overlay)
  • Hue/Sat/Value sliders with presets and image colour picker
  • Exclusion rectangles to ignore regions
  • Theme toggle (light/dark) with rounded toolbar buttons
  • Quick overlay export (PNG) and optional defaults via config.toml

Requirements

  • Python 3.11+ (3.10 works with tomli)
  • Tkinter (install separately on some Linux distros)
  • Pillow (pip install pillow)

Setup

git clone https://github.com/<your-org>/ColorCalc.git
cd ColorCalc
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
pip install pillow
python3 main.py

Workflow

  1. Load an image (📂).
  2. Pick a colour (🎨 dialog, 🖱️ image click, or preset swatch).
  3. Finetune sliders; watch the overlay update on the right.
  4. Draw exclusions with right drag; reset or save when ready.

Config Defaults

Optional config.toml:

[defaults]
hue_min = 250.0
hue_max = 310.0
sat_min = 15.0
val_min = 15.0
val_max = 100.0
alpha = 120
