The picker also doesn't work at all on FileMaker Go, and is flaky on WebDirect.įor these reasons we went with a javascript based approach.Įxample files sit at the core of all our articles and much time and love goes into them, not only to present a particular technique but also as a way for us to help refine the technique.
LOAD INTO COLORPICKER MAC
You will get a different experience on a Mac versus on Windows. However one of the big drawbacks I see with the OS picker is its cross-platform differences. You can find examples of an OS color picker approach in my elemental_ux solution. Its major benefit is that it is not limited to the confines of the web viewer, and so the web viewer object itself merely acts as a color swatch displaying the selected color. The native OS picker is visually very nice.
One is to use HTML5 to use the native OS color picker and the other is to use a javascript based color picker library. We want to provide a simple approach for the user in which they can visually select a color instead of entering it as hexadecimal or RGB values.Ĭurrently in the FileMaker world there are 2 approaches, both of which utilise a web viewer. Often times we need a user to pick a color for something such as a status, a way to identify a record, or a color for a chart. Allowing a user to easily select a color in your FileMaker solution is hugely beneficial.
