Palette To Swatch Conversion

[LeviFiction]

So pixelnook has a script that converts an image's color palette (if the image is a 256 indexed color image) and saves it as a palette.

Someone on the forums wanted a script that would convert the .pal and .psppalette files to swatches. That's what I've attempted here.

The code is quite ugly but should get the job done. The accompanying video also shows some of the bugs/issues with the script.

You can watch that video here: https://drive.google.com/a/trinitybible ... laUDg/view

You can download the script here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8FlFL ... sp=sharing

Quick note - the script must be saved to your Scripts-Trusted folder as it accesses your Harddrive and imports several support libraries to work.

LeviFiction, I really appreciate what you did. In particular, the video is really a helpful add-on to the script. It is not a problem that the script is not perfect or has some bug since once you know how to use it, it does what we expect. Thank you very much.

I just have a problem to run the script (it's in TRUSTED folder, of course). It cannot find Tkinter in

from Tkinter import *

It looks like PSP does not know in PSP X8 where are the python libraries. Any idea?

[LeviFiction]

There should be no differences between your X8 and my X8.
You can try changing the Tkinter line to tkinter. Python is case sensitive but PSP is using version 2.7 so the naming should be correct.

Can you post the exact error you're getting?

Quick edit: I've updated the conversion tool to include GIMP palette files as an option. GIMP palette files include names for each individual swatch. You can either use or ignore these names with the "GIMP Swatch Name" checkbox.
