Great work as always from the Archive

In the Related section of FileSelect is a link to several similar standard dialog boxes, the V2 docs link to a V1 example, maybe we can convert the examples so it is usable in V2.

Thanks guys

I have thought about trying to remake some standard dialogs for v2. Particularly font selection, since by default it only allows 16 colors. I know there is a way to specify a dialog template, but i might just remake this in pure ahk2, unless someone beats me to it.

Actually, I recreated the color picker dialog in V2, but i was unaware of this script
Else I would not have taken the time. I added some extra functions like more saved colors, tooltips with the colornames and selection of transparent colors, and a color pipette of course...

Finally got around to giving your color window a spin. That certainly is a full-featured dialog nice job!

That looks like it was a good brain exercise
