Examples

Full color controls

Provides the complete picker layout shown by the registry example.

full-color-controls.tsx
import {  ColorPicker,  ColorPickerAlphaSlider,  ColorPickerArea,  ColorPickerContent,  ColorPickerEyeDropper,  ColorPickerFormatSelect,  ColorPickerHueSlider,  ColorPickerInput,  ColorPickerSwatch,  ColorPickerTrigger,} from "@/registry/bases/radix/ui/color-picker";export default function FullColorPicker() {  return (    <ColorPicker defaultFormat="hex" defaultValue="#3b82f6">      <ColorPickerTrigger asChild>        <ColorPickerSwatch />      </ColorPickerTrigger>      <ColorPickerContent>        <ColorPickerArea />        <div className="flex items-center gap-2">          <ColorPickerEyeDropper />          <div className="flex flex-1 flex-col gap-2">            <ColorPickerHueSlider />            <ColorPickerAlphaSlider />          </div>        </div>        <div className="flex items-center gap-2">          <ColorPickerFormatSelect />          <ColorPickerInput />        </div>      </ColorPickerContent>    </ColorPicker>  );}

Visual-only picker

Uses the color area and hue slider for a simpler visual selection experience.

visual-only-picker.tsx
import {  ColorPicker,  ColorPickerArea,  ColorPickerContent,  ColorPickerHueSlider,  ColorPickerSwatch,  ColorPickerTrigger,} from "@/registry/bases/radix/ui/color-picker";export default function VisualColorPicker() {  return (    <ColorPicker defaultFormat="hex" defaultValue="#3b82f6">      <ColorPickerTrigger asChild>        <ColorPickerSwatch />      </ColorPickerTrigger>      <ColorPickerContent>        <ColorPickerArea />        <ColorPickerHueSlider />      </ColorPickerContent>    </ColorPicker>  );}

Color picker with alpha control

Adds transparency selection alongside the main color area.

color-picker-with-alpha-control.tsx
import {  ColorPicker,  ColorPickerAlphaSlider,  ColorPickerArea,  ColorPickerContent,  ColorPickerSwatch,  ColorPickerTrigger,} from "@/registry/bases/radix/ui/color-picker";export default function AlphaColorPicker() {  return (    <ColorPicker defaultFormat="hex" defaultValue="#3b82f6">      <ColorPickerTrigger asChild>        <ColorPickerSwatch />      </ColorPickerTrigger>      <ColorPickerContent>        <ColorPickerArea />        <ColorPickerAlphaSlider />      </ColorPickerContent>    </ColorPicker>  );}

Accessibility

  • The example uses ColorPickerTrigger with asChild, so the rendered ColorPickerSwatch serves as the interactive trigger; verify that the resulting trigger has an accessible name in the consuming context.
  • Keep the color input available when precise, text-based color entry is important for keyboard and assistive-technology users.
  • The eye-dropper, sliders, format select, and input should retain their built-in labels and keyboard behavior from the installed color-picker component.
  • Do not rely on the swatch color alone to communicate the selected value; expose the value through the input or an accessible name when the picker is used in a form.
