A and B color

I like the improvement of the way one can switch between the pen modes and also that it preserves all colors picked up and offers Color Variations -- really, really cool -- except I can't find where to edit these colors. I have redundancies in there from pickups I created before I discovered this little feature. There must be a way to refresh the box at least. Please tell me where it is.

I guess the answer is 'No'. I'm curious: To what size will this collection grow and then what happens? :?
EDIT: I wrote this to test the new format.

This color history list is probably reset with every new configuration you create (TVPApro only).
But I understand no one will re-create a full config just to reset this color list...
You should post this idea in feature request...:?:
__________________________________________
If you feel confident with editing config files :
Make a backup copy of your config.ini file from C:\Documents and Settings\You\Application Data\tvpaint animation pro\default
open the config.ini file in notepad
Search for [ColorsHisto] section
Set count to 0
Remove all color entries until you have :
...
[ColorsHisto]
count=0
...
Save.

of course, this method is not supported by anyone. Use it at your own risks.

Thanks, Manuel. I've done it before on other things (color bin before it got its own RESET button. That happened when I was a beta tester here and wanted it badly -- with many others.

I like the new format here quite a bit. Having the header of posts on the left felt odd (well, stupid) at first but I got used to it fast. The reason I like it is that it quickly becomes less obtrusive. I suppose because we are a left to right culture we consider things on the right irrelevant (my International Day of Women contribution).

Yes I think a function to reset the Color History (that doesn't exist yet) should be easily implemented to complete the tool.
