Overview
DaltonLens is a utility to assist color blind people. It runs as a tray program, always at your fingertip with a global Ctrl+Alt+Win+Space shortcut. It can then show color information below the pointer, capture a screen area and apply a range of color filters on it. It also has a tool to highlight pixels with similar colors which is especially useful to read color-coded charts and plots.
Features
Show a pointer over your screen to get information about the color under the mouse pointer, including its nameGrab a screen region and apply color filters on top of it, including daltonizationHighlight similar colors in the region. This is especially useful for charts and plots, and it uses adaptive filters to better handle anti-aliased line plots.
What's new
New features:
• Add a HSVTransform filter with saturation boost, hue shifting and quantization.
• New help window, shown by default on startup.
• Merge the daltonize filters into a single one with a persistent setting for the deficiency kind.
UX improvements:
• Fix the color pointer overlay with small images by moving it to the controls window.
• Fix the Shift key behavior when the controls window has the focus.
• Show the perceptual distance to the two closest color names.
• Calling the global pointer while an image is already open won\'t close it, so the output of filters can be inspected.
Bug fixes:
• Fix the HSV range display in the highlight similar pixels filter.
• Fix the HSV transforms, wrongly applied in linearRGB instead of sRGB.
• Fix the RGB to LMS conversion to use the Judd-Vos correction XYZ space. No significant perceptual change, but should be more correct.
