ColorSense is an Xcode plugin that visually displays UIColor and NSColor values as color overlays when the caret is placed on them, allowing adjustment via the macOS color picker. It was built for older Xcode versions and has not been updated since 2016.

Use cases

  • preview UIColor values visually while coding in Xcode
  • adjust color constants on-the-fly with the macOS color picker
  • insert colors into code from a picker via Edit menu items
  • identify which color a numeric RGBA literal represents

When to choose

  • you are maintaining an older Objective-C codebase on Xcode 4.x/5.x era tooling
  • you want quick visual feedback for hardcoded UIColor/NSColor constants

When to avoid

  • you use a modern Xcode version, as the plugin targets Xcode 4.x and is unmaintained
  • you need HSB or CMYK color support or computed color expressions
  • you need a plugin with an active maintenance track record
