Hi all, I already know the excellent Kirby Colour Picker plugin, which gives us a neat colour picker field for our blueprints. This plugin, however, has a limitation: it only outputs colours in a single format: hex - ie., #aabbcc. In my current project, I need the user to be able to pick a semi-tr…

Maybe you can use PHP to convert it? [image] Convert hex to rgb or rgba color using PHP | Meks If you struggle with converting hexadecimal color codes to RGB or even RGBA using PHP, here's the function which we made and which might help you. And add a number fie…

I’ve had a look at the docs for the MiniColors jQuery Plugin , and it should not be difficult for us to a…

Hi, @iancox , I’ve just sent you a big pull request which adds several features, including RGBA (“opacity”) functionality. Other features include the ability to select the type of colour picker, and being able to add pre-defined clickable colour swatches. I came across several interface update issue…
