Hi, would it possible to get a colour picker added to the list of available form elements?

Hi willp,

Not sure it will get built in but one could probably be added to a form with some custom code. Here are a few MooTools based pickers that I found with Google. What kind of picker do you have in mind?

ColorRoller PhotoShop style

MooColorPicker limited selection

ColorPicker 256? colors

MooRainbow PhotoShop style - hasn't been updated recently but looks OK

Hi, any of them really. One link the one used in the dione form component would be great. I have looked around a few options of form generators but that seems to be the only one that offers this.

Hi Willp,

It looks as though DioneSoft are using this one or some version of it. That's a PhotoShop style picker.

Hi WillP,

The PhotoShop style pickers seemed to be a bit dated, or looked mediocre, so I worked out how to add the swatch style one instead. Please see this new FAQ for the code and a demo.
