Could you please
  • Add a function to calculate average wallpaper color.
  • Extend built-in color picker with ability to pick colors from the screen.
  • Add a property to set color tint (like in Rainmeter). Because "Colorization" property is not really useful with color picker.
  • As an alternative to above: Allow background fill & gradient to be clipped by image mask.
  • "OnWallpaperChange" event

1. I won't require it. Do it yourself. It will be easy
2. I suggest "colorpic", the average user won't pick colors from screen
3. Isn't RGB doing the same thing? Adding another fancy name is useless
4. There is an image mask in some control! (I never use it)

In XWidget it will not be easy, because there is no ScaleImage() or GetPixel() api. Wait, do you want me to do this manually? But what if I change wallpaper every hour? Now I also request OnWallpaperChange event.

I also suggest you "gpick" (it's more advanced). Anyway that's another piece of software and many extra steps.

How do you know? You did some ux research?

Where is RGB for image controls? There's a bunch of controls with images.

WOW! Try to clip fill & gradient with that mask.

XWidget doesn't have but you have got that in windows
WIA.ImageFile ActiveX has nice image manipulation subroutines
