probably a big ask, but it would be great to have a color picker with options similar to Procreate on the iPad.

You can used any image as a color swatch in the style window. Just add it to the Swatches folder in your custom content folder.

Yes, a great feature which I do use, but not quite the same functionality. :D

From your pictures, I'm not sure what else you may be talking about.

Whilst I don't personally prefer to use it, I know a lot of art program users love to use the colour wheel.
Colour picker as it is now, obviously.
Recently used colour swatch.
Complementary colour picker, possibly also other colour combinations: complementary; monochromatic; analogous; triadic; tetradic.
HSB; HSV; RGB; as well as Hex.
A way to change the Hue, Luminosity, Saturation; by sliders rather than by eye.
The main reason for my suggestion is that different users like working with colours in different ways.
For myself, I am quite badly red-green colourblind and rely heavily on HLS sliders when working with a particular colour, which I will more often than not have decided on by using its original HTML colour name or hex code. It is also beneficial to easily identify complementary, triadic or tetradic colours. Another great example of a really good colour picker is the one in Clip Studio Paint.
It is a real shame when Moho does so much that I have to go outside the program just to find and adjust my colours.
Looking at the images I posted doesn't really explain all that, so I hope I have made the idea a little clearer.
:D

There used to be a script around somewhere that did most, if not all, of that. I don't remember the name or by who though.

Cool. Thanks. I'll have a hunt round. I don't usually use scripts, but that one I would. :D
