Maybe I'm not seeing it, but when using the Style Sweeper, I'd like to see an option to convert Hex color values to their shorted value when possible.

So [color: #336699;] would become [color: #369;].

Thanks!

The author can use the shortened version if he wishes.  The Editor does not alter. The Style Sweeper won't if it is set to retain the authored color value.

F8 >> Style Sweeper >> select the preference file >> Edit >> Other tag >> Check Color Format (Unchanged) >> OK

If the author selects the color value from the palette why require the translation to the shortened hexadecimal version. Hardly makes a difference to the weight of the style sheet.  Surely an author, and this shortening can only affect the author, can interpret #088 as #008888.

Topstyle is managing to do a lot with a tightly managed footprint, which is one of its outstanding features.  It is in nobody's interest, and certainly not mine, to see any increase in it except for valuable features.  There is so much more that Topstyle can yet provide moving forward.
