'''Description'''

The [BWidget] color selector '''SelectColor''' provides a simple way to select color. It can be displayed as a modal dialog [Modal dialogs] or as a menubutton popup.

'''New Features'''

From [BWidget] version 1.9.12, '''SelectColor''' includes (when in modal dialog form):

   * an entry widget for displaying or requesting a color in hexadecimal RGB form.  The entry widget and the canvas displays are kept in sync.
   * a ''-command'' option: this specifies a command to be evaluated, with a color value appended, whenever the color selected in the dialog changes. This facility can be used to modify a color in the calling GUI and preview the change before deciding whether or not to accept it. If the user selects "Cancel" in the dialog, the command is called a final time to restore the initial color (supplied by option -color) that was used before the dialog was opened.
   * a ''-help'' option: if its value is boolean true, BWidget DynamicHelp ("balloon help") is provided if the pointer hovers over the entry widget or color palettes.
