Hi cosarch! Thanks for your suggestion!We will seriously consider adding your suggestions in the near future!
Right now, maybe you can choose a specific color in SU(SU can pick color on screen), then import the model to D5, so that you can pick this color and paint it to other models in D5 by using eyedropper tool.

Here is a cool little tool if you want to create your own and don’t know the code…color code

I think it would also be beneficial to add a way to calibrate the eye dropper tool so it can understand the screen sizing.

Ah, yes, the absolute need for a proper, screen-wide color picker in D5! It’s one of those quality-of-life features that saves so much time in rendering workflow. Good to see it was marked as complete, but there’s always room for improvement, especially for complex calibration.
For anyone who still struggles to get a perfect match from a reference image or outside texture, this might help. I often have to match a specific color from a mood board or screenshot. For that, I use an external web tool like colorpickerimage.org. You can upload any image, click anywhere on it, and it gives you the exact HEX, RGB, and HSL codes, which you can then directly paste into D5.
It’s a great workaround for getting precise, external color values into your D5 scene!
