Node Color Tools Pie

Hi Joseph, thank you for the Review. :D I would like to have more colors myself. Unfortunately at the moment it is not possible to change the colors of icons in Blender at the moment. There are only a couple of hardcoded ones which can not be changed with an extension. Therefore I have no way of implementing a more colors in a way that the use can also see which field in the pie menu is which color. The only way to do this is the way the "preciese color menu" is doing it at the moment but in this case i lose the ability to quick select. I believe that the Blender developers are currently working on implementing some sort of possiblitiy to change colors in user interface elements and when it becomes possible more colors are on my list.

For further discussion and/or feature requests please go tot the "Refer Issues" link right next to the description of the addon.

Thank you. :D

Thank you for the review. :D

"D" calls the quick color pie. It brings up hardcolded colors. This menu can be used with directional selection. Directional selection is when you hold "D" and just quickly swipe the mouse in the direction of the pie item you want to select. This is very fast.

The "Z" hotkey brings up the "Precise Colors Pie". The colors in this menu are not hardcoded. You can customize the colors in this menu but directional selection does not work. The Colors of the "Precise Color Pie" can also be set in the side bar (often known as N-Panel) of the Node editor.

You can customize your shortcut keys in the Addons preferences.

As soon as the Blender Python API gives me a way to have customizable colors and directional selection I will merge the two menus into a single one. But at the moment it is not possible to have these two features in one pie menu.

Thank you for thr review. Yes, Z for the first pie and D for the other pie. You can also customize the shortcuts in the addons preferences.
