Allows you to choose a color by selecting a colored object and running the plugin. You can then apply the chosen color by selecting the objects you want to color, running the plugin, and choosing Apply color.

The picked color is normally the first colored (non-black) object in the selection, if any. You can optionally allow Black as the color to pick, which will effectively remove coloring when applied.

The color is remembered for the duration of a Sibelius session.
