Hello,

Do we have an AEM component in place somewhere where authors can select from a wide range of colors (Any) and it would just provide the hex value for that.Something exactly like a html5colorpicker

http://www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_picker.asp

I already checked the implementation for colorpicker and colorfield xtypes and that limiting the range of colors.We would want them to select from any range of colors.

Please help provide the link if anyone has already worked on something similar.

Thanks.

This again is from the selected/defined list of component.I would want to have a wide spectrum of colors like in html5colorpicker.

Like we have in paintbrush.

If you want a color picker in an AEM classic dialog - then you can use this xtype (as you stated - its limited):

Also - see: http://experience-aem.blogspot.ca/2014/11/aem-6-sp1-rich-text-editor-classic-ui-color-palette.html

If you want to use in a Touch UI dialog - see this community article:

http://experience-aem.blogspot.ca/2015/10/aem-61-touchui-rich-text-editor-color-picker-plugin.html

These are your 2 choices for getting a color picker into an AEM component dialog.

Of course if you want a color picker component in an AEM web page - you have far more choices. You can build a custom AEM component using a JQuery plug-in.
