    I had no idea you could install color picker plugins. Thanks for the little app, I’ve always loaded up Digital Color Meter to find a color from on the screen, now that I have this handy app, I can just use the color magnifying glass in the native color picker.

    Mondrianum is really tight, too bad they have a short “beta” expiration time set on the app. Hopefully the full version will be out soon.
