Question

I'm editing a CSS style sheet in Eclipse and I constantly have to copy out e.g. #FF9C21 into an HTML page to see what color it is.

What is the best CSS editor (or Eclipse plug-in) that would allow me to:

  • hover over #FF9C21 to see a little square of that color
  • right click on #FF9C21 to pick a new color from a visual color selector
Was it helpful?

Solution

Not sure if colorpicker is the right one for you.

OTHER TIPS

Have you tried Aptana?

You can also install Aptana as Eclipse plugin:

I know that firebug lets you hover over CSS color definitions and see what they are. Perhaps there's a mozilla plugin somewhere out there. Alternatively, you can use paint and go for rgb(red,green,blue).

the color picker in the firefox plugin colorzilla works pretty well if u dont need to be super exact. as a bonus u can eyedrop colors from webpages
