Color Picker

A configurable interface for color selection.

Overview

The Color Picker Component allows users to select a specific color from a range of available colors. It is typically used in applications where users need to input or select colors, such as in design or drawing tools. It may also allow users to input a specific color code.

Overall, the Color Picker Flow Component is valuable for allowing users to select specific colors precisely and intuitively.

Changing the Properties

The Color Picker can be configured to display color opacity, hide color input or change the label variant.

Adding Interactions

From the interactions panel, you can define interactions when users select a color. For example, you may want to redirect users to another screen or save that value when they select a color.

Here is a full list of actions you can add to the carousel.

Styling the Color Picker

The label is stylable with access to Color, Font Size and Font Weight attributes
