Hi! I really dig Pyxel! I think a feature it could use though is some kind of auto palette, basically it will add a swatch for every color used in the image. Could be really handy.

I want it too. I don't know how.

Hi unboogyman

This is possible already, if you go to Color->Import from image, then all the colors from the image will be added to your palette ;)

The problem with Color->Import from image is you have to use a saved file, I was thinking a palette that updates as you add colors - if you use a color, it's automatically added to the palette. Marmoset Hexels has this feature well implemented as an example.

Ahh like that, yes that could indeed be quite useful.

One more vote for this, please--while Import from image is handy, an option to Generate from current document would be even handier.

Yes please. Also importing from gpl (gimp palette) files. Check out Piskel for inspiration. It does this nicely.
