    Grid Colorpicker Prevalue Editor

    Hi,

    Does anyone know why the colour picker prevalue editor is not included in the prevalueeditors folder? I've noticed it exists in umbraco/Views/propertyeditors/colorpicker/colorpicker.prevalues.html the controller looks good. I've tested it and seems fine it's a great addition if you need to allow content editors the ability to set background colours.

    For anyone interested I simply added the file to umbraco/Views/prevalueeditors folder removing prevalues from the file name. Then added the following JSON config to the datatype grid under styles

     {
        "label": "Set a background colour",
        "key": "background-colour",
        "view": "colorpicker",
        "modifier": "textstring"
      }

    I apologize but I am not sure where you added the JSON config. Do you mean you updated the grid.default.config.js under Views/propertyeditors/grid/config/?

    You probably already know the answer, but for anyone else reading this the JSON config goes into the Umbraco admin:

    • Navigate to the Developer section
    • Expand Data Types
    • Find your Grid datatype (e.g. Grid TextPage) and select it
    • Scroll down until you see "Styles" (after Settings)
    • Click Edit in the Styles section
    • Copy-Paste the provided JSON underneath the other JSON that is displayed
    • Click Save to save the new JSON.
    • "Set a background colour" should appear in the Styles list
    • Click Save to apply to the Data Type.

    Any ideas on how to get this with the approved color datatype?

    I submitted a few months ago this PR https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/pull/1503 to support a color prevalue editor.
