I want to remove the color chooser from header f in Crystalline and create an image link from a module somewhere else on the homepage.
I have searched high and low and cannot find a way to create a link to the color chooser popup. Please help!

- Anyone? If this is possible I would think someone would know the answer off the top of their head. If it's not possible please let me know so I can choose a different template.

- Andy? Kat? Anyone? Is it possible to create a standard image or text link to the color chooser, or to style the color chooser to suit a different module position (other than header f) in Crystalline or any templat with color chooser?

hmmm you can edit the code in colorchooser.php in the features folder of the template.
But the link
<a href="#" id="preset-creator"> ... </a>
needs to be there. You can style that via css if you like to.
The position of the link can be st in the template settings.

Thanks a friggin' buttload Henning! That's all I needed to know...what the link is to the color chooser.
Maybe I didn't do a good job of specifying what I needed, but for some reason I could not find it ANYWHERE.

- Now a followup question...why doesn't it work in the sidebar position? I created a custom html module with that link in it. Published to drawer or header positions it works. Published to sidebar A and it stops working. Is there a technical reason for this?

open presetcreator.php in the features folder of your template and add right after
function isEnabled() {
global $gantry;
this line:
return true;
so it looks like:
function isEnabled() {
global $gantry;
return true;

- and be sure that only one id="preset-creator" is on that page. The colorchooser toggle in the template settings can stay disabled now ...

Thank you for your help. I am THIS close to finshing up the the changes I wanted thanks to your first reply. I have created a new class in template.css and am styling that with the necessary graphics.
Regarding your second answer (so I understand it):
function isEnabled() {
global $gantry;
return true;
This will enable color chooser from a custom html module? If so, I will use it for sure...but as I said I am almost finished with styling the original color chooser to fit in a module position which will get me off the hook for this weekend and I can implement your second suggestion after the weekend.
