Is it possible to add the colour picker in the texture paint panel to a pie menu ?

$\begingroup$ Do you already have a pie menu script working tha tyou need to add it to, or are you asking if there is a pie menu out there that does this? $\endgroup$– Craig D JonesJul 1, 2017 at 23:55

$\begingroup$ No I don't have it, I read the source code for the paint panel and can't figure anything out. I need the color picker in the custom pie menu. $\endgroup$– RetraxJul 1, 2017 at 23:59

$\begingroup$ Not a complete answer, so I will just leave as a comment - you can use Texture Paint Plus and check out how the BrushPopup operator works, and see if you can get the code figured out in a pie menu instead. github.com/artistCDMJ/texture_paint_plus/blob/master/… $\endgroup$– Craig D JonesJul 2, 2017 at 0:22

Panels and Menus use the same methods to display properties and operators, the main difference is that a pie menu will show properties floating by themselves unless you create a box as a background for them.
To make your own pie menu start with the pie menu template that is included with blender.
To show a colour swatch that will pop-up a colour picker when clicked you use layout.prop() to display the colour property. To show the colour picker itself you can use layout.template_color_picker().
An example pie menu that shows both -
class ColourPie(bpy.types.Menu):
bl_label = 'Set Colours'
bl_idname = 'OBJECT_MT_colour_pie'
def draw(self, context):
ts = context.tool_settings
ups = ts.unified_paint_settings
ptr = ups if ups.use_unified_color else ts.image_paint.brush
pie = self.layout.menu_pie()
row = pie.row()
# add a colour swatch that can popup a colour picker
row.prop(ptr, 'color')
box = pie.box()
#show the colour picker directly
box.template_color_picker(ptr, 'color', value_slider=True)
