ChromaMate - Image colour matching and analysis

Software for measuring and comparing colour values in images

ChromaMate, a software application for comparing and analysing colours in images, finds use in various fields, including philately and digital art

This prerelease version of ChromaMate is largely complete and should be relatively bug-free. I am currently working on finalising the help text, which will be completed before the V1.0 release.

Should you encounter any bugs or have suggestions for improving the program, I would appreciate it if you could get in touch with me via the Contact Form.

Getting Started

Once ChromaMate has been installed, click on the help button located near the top right of the main toolbar and choose the Getting Started section in the help window.
Although much of the help text is still incomplete, the "Getting Started" section should be detailed enough to get up and running.

PLEASE NOTE:

As this software is freeware and has not been digitally signed, both Windows and macOS will display warnings that it is from an unknown developer and potentially dangerous.
I have, however, taken extreme care to ensure that it is completely virus-free, including scanning it with multiple virus scanners before release.
You may need to temporarily adjust the security settings on your computer to allow you to install it.
