usage.tsx
import {  ColorPicker,  ColorPickerArea,  ColorPickerContent,  ColorPickerFormatSelect,  ColorPickerInput,  ColorPickerTrigger,} from "@/registry/bases/radix/ui/color-picker";export function Example() {  return (    <ColorPicker value="#3b82f6" onValueChange={() => {}} defaultFormat="hex">      <ColorPickerTrigger>Choose color</ColorPickerTrigger>      <ColorPickerContent>        <ColorPickerArea />        <ColorPickerFormatSelect />        <ColorPickerInput />      </ColorPickerContent>    </ColorPicker>  );}
  • Use when demonstrating multiple color-picker fields connected to React Hook Form.
  • Use for theme, branding, design-token, or customization settings that require validated hex colors.
  • Use as a reference for combining color-picker controls with labels, validation messages, reset behavior, and form submission.

Examples

Theme settings

Use the three fields to let users configure primary, secondary, and accent colors for an application theme.

theme-settings.tsx
<ColorPicker  value={field.value}  onValueChange={field.onChange}  defaultFormat="hex">  <ColorPickerTrigger asChild>    <Button variant="outline">{field.value}</Button>  </ColorPickerTrigger>  <ColorPickerContent>    <ColorPickerArea />    <ColorPickerHueSlider />    <ColorPickerAlphaSlider />    <ColorPickerInput />  </ColorPickerContent></ColorPicker>

Brand color form

Connect a single picker to a controlled form field for editing a brand color with validation.

brand-color-form.tsx
<FormField  control={form.control}  name="brandColor"  render={({ field }) => (    <FormItem>      <FormLabel>Brand color</FormLabel>      <FormControl>        <ColorPicker          value={field.value}          onValueChange={field.onChange}          defaultFormat="hex"        >          <ColorPickerTrigger asChild>            <Button variant="outline">{field.value}</Button>          </ColorPickerTrigger>          <ColorPickerContent>            <ColorPickerArea />            <ColorPickerInput />          </ColorPickerContent>        </ColorPicker>      </FormControl>      <FormMessage />    </FormItem>  )}/>

Accessibility

  • Each picker is paired with a visible FormLabel identifying whether it controls the primary, secondary, or accent color.
  • FormMessage renders validation feedback for required values and invalid hex strings.
  • The trigger is rendered as an outline Button, providing a keyboard-focusable control for opening the picker.
  • The reset control uses type="button", while the Save Theme control uses type="submit", preserving predictable form keyboard behavior.
  • Color values are displayed as text in the trigger, so the selected hex value is not conveyed by color alone.
