I did a minor re-work on the panel stuff, and got the horizontal scrollbar to disappear on the swatches when it's embedded in the main UI. Take a peek and see if it helps any.
It's certainly better than having two scrollbars, one of them not working. But personally I would prefer having only (working) horizontal scrollbar without the vertical, because moving the horizontal would be much smoother. But this mode should perhaps be available too as another option.
I did try t get that first. Unfortunately, it will take a little more tweaking of the code in the container to get it to behave nicely for horizontal situations.
Once that gets settled out, then I can get it switched over and nicer looking.
Also we need some way to resize the panel, if not by dragging then by a preference setting.
This *may* come out from the layout tuning. But if not, then we'll have to look into some things. The stock way, of course, is to use a standard split pane, but then that takes away F6 and F8.
And it would be nice to call this thing by what it is, i.e. "Color palette", in the show/hide menu instead of "Panels".
Actually, the intent is to have things other than just Color showing up down in there. I'll see if I can get another one to help make sense of things. If that's not easy, then we can rename the menu for now.
And of course all the other issues I raised before - the size of the swatches (must be about twice smaller), the X button and the menu in the separator (must go), etc. I know you know about this :)
Yup. All on the plate for being addressed.
