## **Main Features**
### 1. Color Picker
PickerUp! allows you to select any color visible on your screen:
- **How to use:**
- Press `ALT + D` to activate the color picker.
- Move the cursor over any area of your screen to capture the desired color.
- Once selected, the color code will be displayed in the selected format (default: hexadecimal).
- **Color formats:** You can copy the color code in various formats (HEX, RGB, HSL, etc.) via a dropdown menu.
---
### 2. Color Preview
After selecting a color, PickerUp! displays a preview so you can visually confirm the captured color:
- The preview box will appear in the interface.
- This helps ensure you've picked the exact shade you need.
---
### 3. Copy to Clipboard
Once a color has been selected, you can easily copy its code:
- Simply click the clipboard button next to the color code.
- The code will be copied to your clipboard, ready to be pasted wherever you need (design tools, code editors,
documentation, and more).
---
### 4. Customizable Color Formats
PickerUp! supports multiple color code formats to cater to your requirements:
- **Available Formats:**
- Hexadecimal (`#RRGGBB`)
- RGB (`rgb(255, 0, 0)`)
- HSL (`hsl(0, 100%, 50%)`)
- Use the dropdown menu in the interface to switch to your preferred format.
---
### 5. Color History
The app saves a history of previously selected colors for easy reference:
- Selected colors are displayed as blocks at the bottom of the interface.
- Clicking a color in the history will automatically copy its code to your clipboard.
- This is especially useful for managing multiple colors in a project.
---
### 6. Keyboard Shortcuts
- **`ALT + D`:** Quickly activate the color picker to capture a color.
This shortcut allows you to access the app's primary functionality without interrupting your workflow.
