Description Seán de Búrca 2007-08-14 05:12:18 UTC 
The tooltip for the saturation field in the color dialog current reads as `"Deepness" of the color.' First, I'm not sure that scare quotes are appropriate here and will only serve to create ambiguity. Second, I'm not sure that "deepness" conveys the necessary meaning. I would suggest instead using "intensity" (sans the quotes of course). This carries the meaning of saturation more clearly and I believe it will benefit both users and translators.

Yeah, I think make sense.
Also, agrees with the wikipedia definition http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_(color_theory)
