ParticipantI've tried quite a few options for how to add custom palette colors via the Advanced tab of a Color Picker field, but none of them are working. It discusses how to set the color palettes here: https://docs.metabox.io/fields/color/. But, that's for coding it directly. Can I do the same through adding an option under the Advanced tab of the color picker?
Thanks!

ModeratorHi David,
You can use the Dot notation to define an array in the Builder. See my screenshot https://share.getcloudapp.com/eDuwwOG0.
Or use the JSON notation (array)
["#459", "#78b", "#ccc"]. See https://share.getcloudapp.com/Wnullgw8.December 10, 2020 at 10:38 PM #23510ParticipantThat works perfectly, thank you.
Is it possible to do the same with the Background field in some way?
December 11, 2020 at 12:08 PM #23514ModeratorHi,

ParticipantHello Long,
could you please reupload the screenshots? They don't work any more.
Where do I enter the palette-values? Under "Color picker options" or under "Advanced / Custom settings"? Will the key be "js_options" or "palettes"?
Thanks.
December 31, 2021 at 8:50 PM #32950ModeratorHi,
The key is
palettesin the Builder, here is the screenshot https://imgur.com/P6EfPVGJanuary 4, 2022 at 6:08 PM #32984ParticipantThank you, Long.
I entered the values as shown but the palette is not changing. Does it maybe not work with multiple color pickers in the same block/field group?
Best

Can you please share the code that creates the field? And some screenshots of how it displays on your site?
January 4, 2022 at 10:38 PM #32993ParticipantHi Long,
here is a screenshot of the color picker I test on:
I set like 12 colours in this group.
And here I am looking for the color palette. The first three colours should be Red, Black, Red. But it is the same palette as in every other color picker.
And here is the group field export:

Thanks for your support.

January 5, 2022 at 12:34 PM #33004ModeratorHi,
I got it. In the builder, you should use the double quote instead of the single quote. Like this
["#f00","#000","#ccc"]January 5, 2022 at 7:00 PM #33015ParticipantThat's it.
Thank you Long!
