Named Colour
API in ICC Examin is evolving. To make colours selectable from lists, as often embedded in colourimetric data, I decided to prototype an API for named colour exchange. As such a API stands since a long time on the Oyranos TODO list, it shall later be exposed in the Oyranos colour management library.
There it can be used to select colours and get arbitray conversions from it. For instance it will be highly downward compatible with traditional sRGB workflows. The library shall create sRGB values on the fly from different input, such as Lab or Cmyk.
Things like exposing settings as gamut warnings, HDR information and swatch handling must be added.

Here is a screenshot of the upcoming version 0.45 of ICC Examin:

As soon as a file format for colour swatches is defined, it shall be used for storing named colours on disk.
