+<title>Clipboard format</title>
+<para>
+&kcoloredit; uses the following format for clipboard data: for each
+color three numbers for red, green and blue components, respectively,
+and an optional color name, followed by a new line character if there
+is another color. Therefore, if for example three numbers are in the
+clipboard, they can be pasted by &kcoloredit; as a color.

+A color can be selected from an RGB space in &kcoloredit; in the
+following ways:
+<itemizedlist>
+<listitem>
+<para>
+By editing the HSV or RGB components.
+</para>
+</listitem>
+<listitem>
+<para>
+By selecting a color from color gradient panels. In the left one, two
+from HSV components can be selected, and in the right one, the third
+one. The third component can be chosen by clicking on one of the
+buttons labeled <guilabel>H:</guilabel>, <guilabel>S:</guilabel> and
+<guilabel>V:</guilabel>. The one component panel display colors with
+the other two components equal to these selected in the two components
+panel.  The two components panel may display colors with the third
+component fixed, or, if the <guilabel>Variable</guilabel> check-box is
+set, with a value equal to the one selected in the one component
+panel. In the <guilabel>Replace</guilabel> mode, the color selected in
+panels replaces the output one instantly, and in the
+<guilabel>Change:</guilabel> mode it modifies the output color after
+each click, or a mouse move while a mouse button is
+pressed. Therefore, in the latter mode the color selected in the
+gradient panels may be different from the output color. To synchronize
+the colors, the <guibutton>Synchronize</guibutton> button can be used.
