Welcome to one more Feature Request topic.  
It’s about having a color selector with “Interaction” color palette. A discussion has already done here : [Is there any " Interaction " color selector in krita? - #26 by Studio-Kyubo](https://krita-artists.org/t/is-there-any-interaction-color-selector-in-krita/86036/26) ---- but it was a General Question topic. Now I bring it to a Feature Request.

**LETS START,**

**What is an Interaction color palette ?**  
This is an color palette with color wheel that place colors on a background color to show which color is better to use on the background color.

**Where is the of Interaction color palette use?**  
The Interaction color palette is mainly use in graphics design but it can be useful for painting too.

**Color wheel with Interaction color palette,**  
The Interaction color palette also comes with a color wheel. And Krita has a color wheel software on it. Discussed in : [Alternatives to Adobe Color: Rickrack - #10 by eigenmiao](https://krita-artists.org/t/alternatives-to-adobe-color-rickrack/60041/10)  
I haven’t try this, so I don’t know if this feature is available in it

Specially this one,

If it’s not than It’s also in may request.

**Applications** :  
I don’t think that any of the painting or draphics design software has this. I got this from the site Paletton [Paletton - The Color Scheme Designer](https://paletton.com/#uid=75u100k++py00pypKwr++6X++00)

**How the interface can be,**  
I made an interface suggestion for this,  
A button can be added in the toolbar, when we click on it a color selector can be opened and we can chose our color by clicking on the colors. like this

There can be some mistakes. So, please see it with forgiveness.

Someone is working on a way to get the average of colors inside an area. May be something you are interested in.

I could not for the life of me figure out how to do it - other than in g’mic. wink (And that one includes transparent pixels = bad average. + g’mic is too inconvenient for such a simple task ) So here we are! ;D (next kekit release is real soon™)

This only works for only one harmony rule. All others are excluded from it. That is always a issue with some that makes a harmony display. Unless it is just it I suppose.
