Selecting hex value and previewing color...

Post by AshleyQuick »

There are many instances when I'm coding that I'll see a color hex value and I cannot recall the color. Not sure how feasible this is, but it would be nice to select the value and have some sort of option to preview a swatch of the color.

Thanks,
Ashley

Do you have the inspector visible?

Apparently not. I'm trying this after using a very simple html editor so I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the features. Where can I find this?

Its tab may be on the right side of the editor with "Clipboard" and "File Explorer". If not you can select it from the View menu. When it's visible, it will show you the attributes of the tag your cursor is in. You can see a color patch for bgcolor, alink, vlink, etc.

Style colors will also be shown as patches.
