Guild Wars 2

Proposal — Introduce Color Wheel Dye Picker with Search and Highlight function

1. Color Wheel and Color Schemes

This will help immensely if ANET can put the dyes they introduce on some type of Color Wheel in game, preferably, on Dye Tab on Hero Panel. To assist the artistically challenged, please include a tooltip system to suggest dyes based on various color schemes.

For example, include color schemes like Monochromatic, Complementary, Split-Complementary, Achromatic, Analogous, Triadic, Tetradic etc. So, when a player chooses any color, let the dye tab reorganize itself provide color choice options under each of these color schemes and then bunch up the remaining colors under Polychromatic color scheme categorized by hue, sorted by saturation.

For a good example, look at http://paletton.com

2. Search function

Let us search dye based on it’s name, dye pack name etc. Or, for example. gimme all metallic green dyes by providing Hue and Material as choices in 2 drop down boxes.

3. Highlight function

Many times, I am looking for a dye from a particular dye pack or just want to see the rare dyes obtained thru gemstore. Let Black Lion chest dyes have distinctive borders in the dye panel so that they pop out.

This will help many people to design beautiful looking toons. Also, ANET can package it under an enhancement pack that can be sold thru’ their gem store.

The thing I would like to see could be done much easier: simply REMEMBER my sorting preferences from one session to the next. Every time I log into the game, the first things I do are set my Dye Sorting method to “By Hue” and set my Guild and Party chats to Guild and Party instead of “Say”.

Every time I log in.

Please remember these from one session to the next!
