To copy a color as a hexadecimal value by dragging (ImageReady):

Using a droplet to automate optimization settings
(ImageReady)
You can save Optimize palette settings for use on individual images or batches of images
by creating a droplet, a small application that applies the optimization settings to an
image or batch of images that you drag over the droplet icon. You can drag a droplet to
the desktop or save it to a location on disk. When you create the droplet you can choose
where the images will be saved. When you drag an image over it, the droplet launches
ImageReady if the program is not currently running.
Note: You can also drag a droplet onto the ImageReady Actions palette to create an
action step, or you can drag a droplet onto a slice to apply the optimization settings to
the slice.
To create a droplet for automating Optimize palette settings:
1 With an image displayed in the image window, choose a compression format and
compression options in the Optimize palette.
2 Create a droplet:
Drag the droplet icon
•
The droplet is named with a brief description of the compression settings, including file
format and color palette or quality setting information. You can rename the droplet as you
do other desktop icons.
Click the droplet icon on the Optimize palette. Name the droplet, choose a location
•
where the droplet will be saved, and click Save.
Choose Create Droplet from the Optimize palette menu. Name the droplet, choose a
•
location where the droplet will be saved, and click Save.
To use a droplet:
1 Drag a single image or a folder of images onto the droplet icon.
As the images are processed, a progress bar appears.
2 Do any of the following to control the processing:
To temporarily pause the processing, click Pause. You can then click Resume to continue
•
the processing.
To cancel the processing, click Stop.
•
Let the process finish on its own.
