[IDV #FII-861647]: colour editor is broken

There is some round off error when we are painting the color bar. I've tweaked 
it a bit so there might be a slight improvement. If you make the window wider 
that should also reduce the visible offset.

> 2. Moving the grey line freehand it is quite difficult to match it up to

> Still, the new feature is neat (including the paintbrush).

Good to hear. That was the intent - precise painting with the breakpoints. Free 
hand with the mouse
