Color Picker Field in Mainflow

Color Picker is a color selection input field that allows you to choose your color formed as 6-digit Hexadecimal color values.

Mainflow adds an Advanced Color Picker Field to the Editor. You’ll have the ability to add custom colors with a color picker.

• To add this field to your form, drag and drop the field from the available Advanced input fields.

• To enable customization, click on the edit icon you get when hovering over the field. Or click on the Input Customization tab in the right sidebar when selecting the field.

In the Input Customization section, you can customize the input field in the following ways. In this section, you will find 2 portions:

2. Advanced Options

Basic Options #

On the right side of the tab, there are some important Basic options which are given below:

• Element Label: This is the text that users will see on the form for the Color Picker Field. You can put any text here that helps to understand the purpose of that field.
• Admin Field Label: If you want to show a different label for your admin users when they view the form submissions, you can configure that using this option. It doesn’t have any actual effect on the form; rather only for administrative purposes.
• Placeholder: You can also have a placeholder by which users will perceive the field subject.

• Default value: You can manually set any fixed value in your field also, you can pre-populate your input field dynamically by using our available shortcodes.
• Label Placement: Determine the placement of the label that you set previously concerning the input field. The available options are Top, Left, Right, and Default. All of those are self-explanatory except the Default. What it means is that it will represent your global label placement settings.
