About

ColorBox is a component that lets you select any predefined color with preview. There are two predefined palettes available:

  • cpDefault (some frequently used named colors)
  • cpFull (all named colors)


The download contains the component, and a patch to make use of the cpFull option.

This component was designed for cross-platform applications.
