Description

Basically i'd like IG to have the same feature as IrfanView. In that software if you go to Image > Information, then under "Number of unique colors" it will show the total amount of colours in the image that you're currently viewing.

Surprisingly very few image viewers and even illustration and photo editing software are able to show this basic information. IG could add this feature as a separate tool, but it might be better to add this information to the Color Picker tool.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing Color Picker tool and any image-information display it uses. Determine where the total number of unique colours should appear and verify the result against representative images; done means the current image's unique-colour count is displayed clearly.
