I wrote a similar ColorPicker Script sample in the past, too.

create document
create rectangle object
show ColorPicker
choose color with ColorPicker
create RGB color swatch
(convert to CMYK color swatch)
coloring rectangle object to this swatch

thanks Harbs, it works good.

But, one more thing, how to get CMYK from this color picker .It gives numeric value for our every color picking. My need is to get its CMYK or RGB Value.

For example,

while selecting "C=78, M=29, Y=59, K=27" on colorpicker it calling method returns value "2447174".
