Hex values

Postby Trmickco » Thu Mar 19, 2015 12:52 pm

If I'm looking at a color scheme website like Paletton.com, and find a scheme I like, can I simply enter the values (RGB) when trying to color text? Tried to enter A13824 and it just goes blank... Just learning ;) Thanks!

shift control F to open the style dialog
enter the color code in RGBA. A stands for alpha = transparency. So you need to add ff after your color code. A13824 => A13824FF. Or you can enter only A13824 and tweak the alpha using the slider
