Color Picker Advanced is a utility that extends the standard WoW color picker with more precise color controls. It is useful when you want this information or control available inside the game without adding an unnecessarily large UI package. The goal is to make a specific WotLK 3.3.5a task quicker and easier to read while leaving the rest of the interface largely unchanged.
Main features
- numeric color values.
- reusable or easier-to-copy color selection depending on build.
- useful for UI and addon configuration.
- works when another addon opens the standard color picker.
How to use
Open any addon option that uses the Blizzard color picker. The advanced controls appear with the normal picker and let you choose a more precise color.
Installation
- Download the addon archive for your WotLK 3.3.5a client.
- Close World of Warcraft before replacing addon files.
- Extract the addon folder into World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns.
- Start the game and make sure the addon is enabled on the character-selection screen.
- Test its basic function in a safe situation before using it in a raid, arena, Auction House session, or other important activity.
If Color Picker Advanced does not appear to work, first check for an extra nested folder inside AddOns and confirm that you downloaded a build intended for the 3.3.5a API. Old WotLK addons often have several forks, so commands and optional modules can differ slightly between packages. Keep a backup of a working addon folder before replacing it with another fork.
Compatibility and troubleshooting
WotLK 3.3.5a resources often exist in several forks. If a command, trigger or option behaves differently, confirm the exact archive hosted on the page before changing the instructions. When testing, disable unrelated addons if necessary, reload the UI after configuration changes, and keep a working backup so you can return to the previous setup quickly.
