Colors by Number is a sophisticated tool designed for professionals in design, development, art, color science, and education, aimed at enhancing the understanding and application of color across various mediums and environments—including studios, offices, homes, and beyond. It functions as an effective educational resource for students delving into the complexities of color theory and its practical use, providing an immediate and personal experience. It is important to note that Colors by Number is not a typical "paint-by-number" game but rather a comprehensive color exploration platform.

  • It provides multiple methods for viewing, editing, saving, and exporting from an extensive palette of nearly limitless combinations of up to four colors. Users can choose from ten geometric designs within an intuitive, customizable interface tailored to their workflow preferences.
  • The user interface partitions into a central display area complemented by control panels on either side, facilitating seamless access to options for viewing, defining, adjusting, and managing color selections—embodying a design that emphasizes functionality driven by form.

View / Save (center panel)

  • Enables browsing through billions of four-color combinations in either Manual or Auto mode, with the option to set against backgrounds in gray, black, or white.
  • Allows users to toggle among ten interchangeable geometric designs to observe how colors interact when positioned or layered in varied configurations.
  • Designs comprise four distinct color regions labeled in overlapping layers, with the system engineered to prevent any color repetitions within a single combination.
  • Navigational controls include Back and Forward buttons for step-by-step review of session history.
  • An eyedropper utility facilitates sampling colors from the display panel; sampled colors can be added to palettes and assigned to individual sliders in the adjacent control panel.
  • Users can temporarily hide one or both control panels—an option useful for focused viewing or experimental exploration by combining modes such as Auto with minimal interface clutter.
  • Allows unlimited saving of selected color schemes for purposes including editing, printing, sharing, or exporting for integration into other workflows.

Select / Adjust (right-hand panel)

  • Color values are comprehensively represented in RGB, HSB, and Hexadecimal HTML formats—including alpha transparency values for detailed control.
  • Individual colors can be precisely modified via text inputs or slider adjustments that update instantly across associated visual elements and the main display area.
  • Colors can be locked to prevent accidental alteration; toggling lock status is achieved through simple taps on small color blocks.
  • Tapping twice on a color block opens a Visual Color Selector for more refined editing or replacement choices.
  • An "Info" icon provides quick access to instructional videos, support resources, and direct contact options with the development team.

Edit / Manage / Export (left-hand panel)

  • The session history tabulates all prior generated colors and design selections—encompassing adjustments made via sliders or direct input—and allows review at any point.
  • A comprehensive Library feature permits storage of unlimited color schemes for retrieval across multiple sessions; metadata such as creation and modification dates enhances organization.
  • Supports printing of multiple palettes with detailed data and thumbnail images through AirPrint-compatible printers.
  • Enables users to edit stored selections—adding new entries, deleting existing ones, or updating details—whenever necessary.
  • Allows exporting of selected palettes as Adobe Swatch Exchange (ASE) files or images, complete with thumbnail previews displaying numbered regions and precise color data—including transparency information—to facilitate seamless integration into other applications via email or external storage.
