I tried to generate some new palettes with the Gimp and it is fairly easy. Nevertheless, colors still cannot be moved around. The answer to this is probably, as Alan mentioned, some third party color management software. It would benefit Inkscape as well as Gimp and
Or you could open the GPL file in any good spreadsheet. The palette file it is a list of Tab Seperated Values (TSV).
Yes of course, I could also copy paste them directly in the text file to reorder them, but from a creative point of view it is probably easier and more appropriate to actually drag a square of color rather than a piece of text. Well then, this is probably just a question of easiness (some might call it eye candy interface) as the functionality is there but IMHO a good interface make people discover the functionality, otherwise most of them probably won't use it. In addition it might fit in your requirements for a SoC project: its development can be parallel to the rest and there is not too much disappointment if it fails (because the functionality is still there). these were just suggestions anyway. As I wrote earlier it seems that there is a lot of potential functionalities already inside Inkscape that are just not exposed through some interface... this should be a SoC project: "Exposing hidden functionalities in a leading vector editing software" ;-)
thanks for the reply.
