I’ve been asked many times about the color wheel visible on my Photoshop screen. It’s not built-in—it’s actually a Photoshop extension called Painter’s Wheel, and it’s one of the most useful plugins I use on a daily basis.
This free plugin adds a dedicated color wheel panel to your workspace, replicating the Corel Painter color system with a more intuitive interface than Photoshop’s default color picker. It features a ring for Hue, and a triangle for Saturation and Value, making color selection fast and visually clear.
One feature I find particularly useful: by clicking the small triangle at the bottom right of the panel, you can generate a gradient between two colors (A and B), which helps a lot when working with subtle transitions or palettes.
To install the Painter’s Wheel, just visit http://lenwhite.com and follow the steps provided. It’s simple, lightweight, and compatible with the Photoshop CS6 interface.
Highly recommended for anyone looking to improve their color workflow in Photoshop. Give it a try.
Enjoy.
