![]() This could show the hex color of the selected swatch if the swatch is an 8-bit RGB (or related) color swatch, but show the CMYK values of a CMYK swatch, the Pantone number of a Pantone swatch, etc. ![]() What might make more sense is to include a *label* (read-only display) explaining the selected color. ![]() The value of including them on the swatches panel, together with the potential for confusion it may cause, seems questionable. Including them on RGB and RGB-related color space color pickers in the Colors panel makes a lot of sense and should cover the needs of most web designers. Similarly, displaying hex values for swatches representing CMYK colors can be similarly thought of as misleading. Swatches may represent spot colors, which by definition are not RGB, or even CMYK even though they have RGB/CMYK representations for display and printing on devices that do not have true spot color support, displaying RGB values for them could be considered misleading. Placing an *editable* hex color field on the Swatches panel runs contrary to its purpose and the very notion should be immediately dismissed as a bad idea.Īlso, hex values are only of interest to web designers and do not scale well: they only reflect 8-bit-per-component RGB and do not account for HDR, CMYK, etc. Swatches are designed to maintain consistency of color throughout a document.
