Color Picker in custom modules

[purpledragon]

I like that we can add a color picker in our custom modules, but is there a way to have the color picker displayed with the other fields in the custom module, rather than on it's own? This would be a great feature.

YESSS. Great suggestion @purpledragon. This is SO needed.

We have a ton of modules on an email template of ours, so to keep users from getting lost in the edit modules section, we had to keep the color options in the module by having it be a text field where people would enter their hex value.

We work around the obvious frustrations with this method by suggesting ColorZilla. Users use ColorZilla and just copying their desired hex or rgb values and pasting them in the provided text field.

It can be a little frustrating, but if you have 10 modules on a page, the number of options will be doubled - making them have to sort through 20 modules instead of 10! All because this feature is not available. 

Thank you for putting this in the idea forum!

That's awesome! Glad it's in beta
