Subject: [PATCH] fix: use direct hex colors for visual comparison bars
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Fixed the colored bar segments not showing:

🎨 Direct Color Implementation:
- Added getCategoryColorHex() function to return actual hex values
- Changed from CSS variables to direct backgroundColor
- No more var(--color-*) that wasn't resolving
- Direct hex colors like #3B82F6 for length, #10B981 for mass, etc.

✨ Visual Improvements:
- Taller bars (h-8, 32px) for better visibility
- Drop shadow on percentage labels for readability
- White text on bars >30% filled
- Foreground color text on smaller bars
- pointer-events-none on overlay to prevent interaction issues

🔧 Updated Components:
- MainConverter: Import and use getCategoryColorHex()
- VisualComparison: Accept hex color string directly
- lib/units: Added getCategoryColorHex() with all 23 colors

The bars will now definitely show with vibrant colors!
