Color Swatch Toolbar

UPDATE #2:

Here is the second version of the toolbar:

ColorSwatch Toolbar v.2

Here is the easy-object-color-setting tool! Just select desired object to be colored, and click on the color button! You can learn how it is done by just looking at the button macro.

UPDATE #1: I assigned a macro to "CTRL+Shift+C" via "Options-> Keyboard" as this:

NoEcho -Toolbar Toolbar "ufubo_v5" Toggle "uColorSwatch" Enter Enter

And added this to the end of all buttons in the toolbar:

-Toolbar Toolbar "ufubo_v5" Show "uColorSwatch" No Enter Enter

Example Black Button before:

! _Select _Pause _Pause
-Properties O C O
0,0,0
Enter Enter
_SelNone

And now:

noecho
! _Select _Pause _Pause
-Properties O C O
0,0,0
Enter Enter
_SelNone
-toolbar toolbar
"ufubo_v5" show
"uColorSwatch" no
enter enter

So when you hit "CTRL+Shift+C" the toolbar pop-ups, and when you click on a button the toolbar closes after running the command.
