Color Picker Field

A color picker field would have a good number of applications. A few different options would be useful:

Full Range: 24-bit

Limited Range: 8-bit, web-safe, grayscale, etc.

Custom Range: User-defined colors

did you want to code it ?
1 need to find a good lilbrarie or use joomla buildin
2 define option needed (personnal color, range multi value, output type etc)
3 code it
4 insert it in core

Hello

we do not need to rediscover the wheel here

The new field that will use Joomla form elements like Joomla form element "color picker" will be available next month

But now we do not have such a field

... mixed joomla field and flexicontent field !!

I do have a temporary solution for a custom set of colors, but the options only display properly for front-end viewing. The back-end won't treat inline styling as actual styling and will instead output text. So I've opted for this route. If you happen to come up with a clever workaround to get it to work in both the front and backend, it would be greatly appreciated.

• Field Type: Select or Select Multiple
• Editing>Values>Field elements

• Viewing>Value List

• Preset configurations: Customize
• Every value prefix: <span style="1em;padding: 0 0.5em;background: rgb(

The end result is functional.

If you do try the full HTML tag in one line, here's how it breaks:

But given it still gives me the colors in the backend, I may just tolerate this route instead.
