Color Cop
I was looking for software that would allow me to hover my mouse pointer over an area of the screen and give me the hexadecimal code for that specific color. I used to have a small program that did this, but a computer crash a while back caused it to go the place where ones and zeros go when they die. I didn’t have it backed up and I couldn’t remember the name of it. It was just something I clicked on my desktop to find the color of something.
I looked on Google for something like it, but I never found anything that fit the bill. I was fairly picky in my requirements. I wanted it to be free, easy to use, and I wanted it to give me the hexadecimal code in a format that I could cut and paste. I finally found what I was looking for. It’s called Color Cop.
Normally I don’t want anything to do with anything with the word “cop” in it. For this software, I will make an exception.
Give it a try if you are looking for something like this.
