Changelog

All notable changes to the ColorPicker will be documented in this file.

[1.0.0] - November 5, 2020

• First official release.
• Example and documentation updated.
• Updated the live Web demo version to use the released package.
• New API: Added shouldUpdate to the color wheel picker, as a fix for an issue where black selection changed hue to red. This is a lower level API that is not needed unless you make your own picker for scratch and you want to use the wheel picker in your picker.
• Final API name tweaks before version 1.0.0 release:
• Renamed: API createPrimaryColor -> createPrimarySwatch
• Renamed: API createAccentColor -> createAccentSwatch
• Renamed: API colorNameAndHexCode -> materialNameAndCode
• Renamed: API colorName -> materialName
• Renamed: API colorHexCode -> colorCode

[1.0.0-dev.5] - November 5, 2020

• Added a feature on the wheel color picker that enables entry of a hex RGB value to select a color.
• API changes to support separate display of Material color name showMaterialName and selected color code showColorCode, plus defining their text styles materialNameTextStyle and colorCodeTextStyle.
• New API showColorName to display an English color name for any selected color, not just the Material color names or custom named color swatches. It has text style that can be defined as well colorNameTextStyle.
• New API colorCodeIcon that exposes the color code icon so it can be customized.
• New API enableTooltips to enable current and future tooltips used in the picker. Currently only the copy color code button has a tooltip.
• A new method was introduced in ColorTools called nameThatColor(Color color). It returns a name for any color passed to it, only supports English names. It is based on a Dart port of http://chir.ag/projects/ntc and it contains 1566 named colors. It matches a given color to the closest similar color and returns its name.
