XamlPadX (update)

I got a few requests to include a color picker which turns out to be pretty useful. As such, I have included it in the pallette

A few things to keep in mind so that you might not get frustrated using the tool:

Default behavior:
Color picker is disabled so that the pallete is functioning
Mouse movement triggers the color choice only in the pallette
Mouse Click finalises the color so that we can now select the proper shade (2nd bar)
In this bar too the mouse click finalises the color choice

When color picker is checked (blue color), the color pallete now becomes the entire screen so you can move the mouse all over
To finalise use Right Click or MouseWheel (this is what i prefer)
You can then select the shade from the 2nd bar as before (remember that now the top pallete is active :) )
Finalising the color unchecks the button (returns to original state)

This should make the use pretty easy.

the exe in both this and the prev post have been updated
