Document Designer: Add Custom Colors

Rachel Dew

It would be nice to have the ability to enter your own custom color where all the color options are available. Several options I would like to see:

Use a color picker by clicking and dragging your cursor inside the picker area to highlight the desired color
Choose color with eye dropper to select color from element/image on canva
Choose color by inputting values for: Hex, RGB, HSL or CMYK

Hey Rachel Dew, thanks for your feedback! I have a few more questions for you:

Can you provide examples of when you needed to use custom colors and how it would have improved your experience?
Are there specific color formats (Hex, RGB, HSL, CMYK) that you use more frequently than others?
Would you find it useful to have a feature to save and manage your custom colors for future use?

Hi Jon Darbyshire,

Yes having the ability to set custom color would allow me to have elements in my document that align with my brand. For example I'm putting divider rows/rectangles on my meeting notes template/invoice that Right now I just have to select something that Is close and hope it works. (See attachment 1)
RGB, and HEX are the ones that I use the most
Yes it would be really useful to save your default brand colors maybe in workspace setting that you can choose from, or create a Brand/theme colors that are accessible in the document setting so when you are setting the colors for an element you can easily grab/select that color. Maybe 5-10 default colors would be helpful
