These Guys are doing a knock up job (Just imagine if we had these guys also working on the AOS4 project, Things would be moving even quicker {not to take away from the Excellent work that Hyperion is doing but it would help things move along much quicker} ).

Anyway, I wish the Aros team the best.

@Dan

I thought Colourwheel was in Workbench 3.1, or have the AROS team made a better version that is now used?

3.1 colourwheel doesn't work in hi-/true-colour. 3.9 colourwheel however does, I think.

The AROS-version of colourwheel with 24-bit rendering was used in WB3.5 and WB3.9.
Also some other colourthingy I think?

I'd guess that that would be the gradient slider then.
