not working on st3 linux 64bit about colorpicker

[redrbrt]

Same problem

[weslly]

Does the console (ctrl+`) shows any error message?

[thomporter]

I'm having the same issue. Installed via Package Control. No errors in the console for me.

I did get it to come up once using the command pallet and searching for it... But since then, it will not come up that way, or using ctrl+shift+c (which I had to setup manually... Didn't see a keymap file in the ColorPicker folder in Packages..)

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04, 64bit as well...

@thomporter : Exactly same here, Arch linux 64bit

[thomporter]

It is mysteriously working now... Both the keyboard shortcut and the command pallet options work fine. I got another issue I'm gonna open a new ticket on, but for now, I'm able to get the color picker up.

I did nothing to in ST other than edit files, haven't even restarted it since my first post... (sorry @dare023 (and others...) Wish I had a proper solution.

Same problem here; Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit.
Tried ctrl+shift+c, nothing. Tried it from command pallet, nothing. No errors in sublime console, either.

Same here but it 32bit Ubuntu 12.04
Nothing in the console.
I tried starting linux_colorpicker.py (on its own) from the terminal. It starts fine without arguments, BUT

$ ./linux_colorpicker.py "#0000FF"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./linux_colorpicker.py", line 9, in <module>
    if Gtk.gdk.Color(sys.argv[1]):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/module.py", line 243, in __getattr__
    return getattr(self._introspection_module, name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/module.py", line 105, in __getattr__
    self.__name__, name))
AttributeError: 'gi.repository.Gtk' object has no attribute 'gdk'

A barely know anything about python, but I don't think that this is the expected behaviour :)

Same problem here with my ST3 on ubuntu 14.04 64bit.

I can run color picker from command palette (ctrl-shift-p), but can't find any key binding for it.
So I add my key binding manually, and now it's working.
Preferences -> Key Bindings - User

[
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+c"], "command": "color_pick" }
]

[darkogerguric]

Nope, not working here in any case.

[redrbrt]

wmh, the solution for custom binding key works for me! thanks

Hi Guys,

On Ubuntu Gnome 64 bit I solved this issue by installing the following module:
sudo apt-get install libQt5Widgets5

Now the color picker works very well.

[kbjr]

My machine says libQt5Widgets5 is already installed, so not a fix for me.

Can confirm @paulikt, not working here either. Running Linux Mint and ST3.
Running manually linux_colorpicker.py without arguments works, but if I run passing an initial color it throws:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "linux_colorpicker.py", line 9, in <module>
    if Gtk.gdk.Color(sys.argv[1]):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/module.py", line 320, in __getattr__
    return getattr(self._introspection_module, name)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/module.py", line 139, in __getattr__
    self.__name__, name))
AttributeError: 'gi.repository.Gtk' object has no attribute 'gdk'

[paulikt]

Maybe it is related to the version of the Qt library. On my Ubuntu 12.04 the highest (stock repo) available Qt is Qt4. Unfortunately I don't have the time to compile Qt5 and test my idea.

[rafaelcanovas]

It's related to the GDK library being moved to its own namespace on newest GTK versions, I got a working version, working on a PR right now.

[rafaelcanovas]

Can someone test for me on older versions of GTK? color_parse should be available on both GTK 2 and 3 according to the docs, but we all know the docs aren't always the truth.
