Agave – colorscheme designer tool for GNOME

Agave is a very simple application for the GNOME desktop that allows you to generate a variety of color schemes from a single starting color.

Choose a starting color by clicking on the color button or selecting a color from the palette, and then select a scheme type from the combo box. The generated scheme is then displayed in the main window.

Agave was previously known as GNOME Colorscheme.

Features include:

• Generate 6 different types of color schemes: Complements, Split Complements, Triads, Tetrads, Analogous, and Monochromatic.
• Select a color that’s displayed anywhere on the screen (“dropper” tool).
• Easily change the lightness or saturation of a color scheme with a toolbar button.
• Copy the hexstring (e.g. “#336699”) of a color to the clipboard for use in CSS and HTML files.
• Save your favorite colors to a ‘Favorites’ list for easy reference and export your favorites as a Gimp Palette file.
• Navigate back and forward through history of previously selected colors.
• Choose colors from a palette of pre-defined “web-safe” colors (more palettes to come soon).
• Drag and Drop between Agave and the Gimp, as well as many other programs.
• Generate a random color scheme if you’re stuck and need some inspiration.
• User interface translated into English, Dutch, German, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Czech, and Bulgarian.
