Description -The Authors would like to apply colors to the content/text that is added to a web page.Currently an out of box option does not exist.

Why is this feature important to you - It will make all our Author lives easy, While applying colors to the context/text.

How would you like the feature to work - The Authors should able to select the colors to the context/text.

Current Behaviour - Currently we are using 3rd party color-picker plugin and it is not working as expected.

The point of using an enterprise CSM is to apply the company branding to the web content that authors edit. Allowing authors to select custom colors, like selecting custom fonts, sizes, background colors, etc, kind of defeats that purpose.

 

Instead, custom font styles can be configured in the RTE that authors can choose from. With different CSS applied to the font styles, it is possible for authors to set different colors from a limited list.

 

We'll however keep in mind for future RTE enhancements that we also offer some options to enable a color picker for the customers that desire to give that level of freedom to their authors.
