Declaration
Property Value
Type | Description |
---|---|
PaletteCollection | A PaletteCollection object that represents a collection of palettes. |
Remarks
The PopupColorEdit stores its palettes within the Palettes collection. This collection provides methods that allow you to add new palettes and remove existing ones. Individual palettes are represented by ColorPalette descendants, and can be accessed using indexed notation or the name (ColorPalette.Name).
By default, the editor displays three color palettes: Theme Colors, Gradient Theme Colors and Standard Colors. The Recent Colors palette is automatically created when an end-user selects a custom color from the More Colors dialog.
You can replace default palettes or add any number of custom color palettes. To create a color palette, create a new instance of the CustomPalette class, and define the colors using the ColorPalette.Colors property. To create a palette with gradient colors, use the static ColorPalette.CreateGradientPalette method.
Example
This example shows how to create custom palettes and display them within the PopupColorEdit control.
