Hextractor 🎨

A minimal and efficient color picker for Windows, built with AutoHotkey (AHK) v1.

✨ Features

  • Instant Color Picking – Press Ctrl + Alt + C to activate the crosshair cursor.
  • Click to Copy – Simply click anywhere on the screen, and the hex code of the pixel under your cursor will be copied to the clipboard.
  • Seamless Experience – No distracting UI, just a clean crosshair for precision.

🚀 How It Works

  1. Press Ctrl + Alt + C to activate the color picker.
  2. Your cursor changes to a crosshair, and a small color preview circle appears.
  3. Move your mouse over any color on the screen – the preview updates live.
  4. Click to instantly copy the hex code to the clipboard.
  5. The cursor returns to normal, and the tool exits automatically.
