Relevant but different to Custom hex colors which is requesting for additional colours throughout Asana objects (project/portfolio icons) and surfaces (dropdown field options, tags etc).
The request here is for a new ‘Color-type’ custom field which could display a coloured box (perhaps full-cell fill?) and display in contrasting black/white text the actual colour code, formatted in RGB, CMYK, HEX, HSL etc. Clicking into this field, I would imagine a modal similar to a Photoshop colour picker (with a “web-safe colours only” checkbox?).
Back in the day as an Architect, I craved such a field that would complement my Asana lists / databases of paints, material finishes & fixtures. I can imagine others using such a field for web and graphic design, print, manufacturing and many other applications where colour is an important parameter, or data point.
I’m wondering if such a ‘Color’ field would be of interest to others?
(we can then argue which side of the pond spells ‘colour’ correctly
)
Here’s a mockup of what I imagine would happen when you click into the field, either type the colour code or select one to create a colour code:
And an idea for the field editor modal, basically just select your format:
