Real Color Mixer

Real Color Mixer simulates mixing real paints (for example oil or acrylic paints) in different proportions, making it possible to preview the newly created colours without actually mixing the physical paints.

The colours are not mixed additively (which is the process used in RGB colour models). However mixing the colours red, green and blue in the Real Color Mixer does not achieve white or black colours. Depending on which tones are used for mixing, you can, for example, get a dark khaki colour.

Real Color Mixer uses the spectrum of light and a range of reflected and absorbed light of a given colour as mixing information.

Features:

- ability to define up to 12 colours for each palette

- ability to save up to 40 mixed colours for each palette

- possibility to copy the palette

- database of 430 predefine colours

- ability to set the texture and form of the brush

- create (from colour picker, RGB or HTML colour codes) and delete your own colours

- edit colour name

- importing and exporting a palette

- calculator function

- color accuracy search setting

- picking colors from an image

- the ability to find a color mixture for a given color

To add a colour to the 'mixer colour' panel, press and drag the desired colour. To change the mixing ratio, use plus (+) or minus (-) buttons. Pressing on the plus or minus buttons increases or decreases the amount of specific colour by one unit. Pressing the button slightly longer will change the ratio of the colour by 10 units.

Calculator function allows you to calculate the amount of component paints to achieve the given amount of mixture. The volume unit can be defined in the settings (Lit, Fluid ounce, Galon, Pinta, Quarter).
