ColorPicker

activate color checker (win+shift+c shortcut works fine) and mouse over screen color

To display CIELAB color as natural whole numbers per the color picker drop down choice in settings; see .jpg's
When active, colors list display window is always able to be fully seen; regardless of mouse position on any screen

Settings are set to display whole numbers; display shows decimal numbers.
If you position cursor at far right edge of any screen (I use 3 display monitors) part of the displayed colors list window is either cut-off on right side, or is overlapping next screen. Overlap is understandable and acceptable; however losing the display info on most farthest right screen makes color checking on far right edge useless. Other 3 monitor screen edges behave correctly. Decimal numbers display also contributes causing a larger width window.

Research direction: Find the color formatting code in the ColorPicker module and modify it to round CIELAB values to whole numbers when the 'Whole numbers' setting is enabled.
