Implemented Text Editor: More lighter colors/color wheel

[Matthew Hawley]

I think the color selection should have more brighter colors like red and green. Also I think there could be a color wheel.

Thanks.

Good! One less thing for people to criticise

No, one more thing for the people who liked the other palette to criticize. XenForo will never please every one.

Indeed.. but since I'm an action gal, I just went ahead and changed the hex values in the redactor.js in beta 4 with the hex values from beta 3 No need for me to criticise something that I'm capable of changing for myself

yeah, the old version from XF 1.1 looked better and had some more options re HEX#, etc.

The "None" at the bottom is a bit strange as I always click on it, expecting to show "More" instead of "None". Maybe its just my brain....

I would change the "rounded border" around each color-box, but

@erich37, add the following to your extra.css:

.redactor_color_link {
  -webkit-border-radius: 0px;
  -moz-border-radius: 0px;
  -khtml-border-radius: 0px;
  border-radius: 0px;
}

Should result in:

Got the old colours back and aligned nicely.

Finally, something I've suggested has been implemented!

Sooooo... does anyone else see the optical illusion on the new brighter colour choices? If you open it up you see dots between the colours.......

I saw it with the previous colors as well - it's more noticeable with dark colors for me.

lol Glad it's not just my eyes. I don't get it happening with the less vibrant set

Simplify !
Hardly do people need 65 colours to choose from.
I like the new colours better.
Most importantly, it should be easy for a webmaster to tweak if they want.

Does the mobile style give 65 options ?
That can't be good.

 

[Jeremy]

The mobile style gives the same exact editor as the non-mobile.

The mobile colour selection is awkward.
The 65 tiles look too small.
I would have 5 main colour options ... with the option to show more, for the rare time someone wants more.
I tested the small color tiles and they seemed to be relatively easily selectable.
I guess it works well. I myself see zero point to that many options.
