A color picker is simply a method for discovering the exact color of a previously colored object, so that it may be applied to a new one.

Nendo coloring is the last and only reason I still use Nendo. I adore Wings3d, but it does not (as yet) posses coloring in the sense Nendo does. I believe, I read in forum, that Bjorn plans to add Nendo style coloring at a future date after he has, I plan a ceremonial burning of my Nendo disk.

Wings3d allows coloring only of materials applied to objects for later UV-mapping and texturing. This is not coloring in the true sense of the word and is visible only when Gauraud shading is selected.

Nendo actually colors the model directly, bit-by-bit. In VR worlds and games, colors render innately much faster than textures (less lag) Bit-by-bit coloring adds a touch of subtlety to color by allowing colors to blend, rather than mono-colored polygons. Of course, texturing is vastly superior when rendering speeds arent quite so critical.

On command Nendo automatically converts colors to materials for its internal UV/texturing and painting. Unfortunately, Nendos UV/texture methodology was almost a good idea. (Very disappointing)

I was on the Nendo beta; Nendo was released far too soon, it has more bugs than a flophouse bed. They where warned by beta testers and Nendo staff alike, nobody listened.
