hmm, this might be able with just one very smart script, but i have  
always been very
weak in maths so i would suggst just a (dirty) trick :-)

Create a list of all available hex color values and store it in a  
customprop of a scrollbar...
Then set the startvalue to 1 and the endvalue to the num of lines of  
that customprop of that
scrollbar and maybe you can guess the script of the scrollbar right now  
;-)

on scrollbardrag what
   put line what of the h_colors of me into fld "eyes only"
end scrollbardrag

:-)

Hope that helps.

P.S.
Here you will find a list of these colors, ready to copy ;-)

Drop a line if you also would like to colorize a graphic with the  
scrollbar at the same time...
I, personally, would find only seeing the hex value way too boring ;-)
