Give palette elements border or title


I have my jquery spectrum plugin: Spectrum with a palette of colors like these: Palette

And I need to give the colorpicker a individual palette with colors. There are 5 primary colors and about 15 other "secondary" colors, so I want to mark/highlight them as primary. For example to give them a black border around the boxes or to have a title for the 5 primary colors.

See this Fiddle as example(Full example): http://jsfiddle.net/bgrins/ctkY3/

<h2>Basic Usage</h2>
<input type='text' class="basic"/>
<em id='basic-log'></em>

<h2>Full Example</h2>
<input type='text' id="full"/>

JS

$(".basic").spectrum({
    color: "#f00",
    change: function(color) {
        $("#basic-log").text("change called: " + color.toHexString());
    }
});

$("#full").spectrum({
    color: "#ECC",
    showInput: true,
    className: "full-spectrum",
    showInitial: true,
    showPalette: true,
    showSelectionPalette: true,
    maxSelectionSize: 10,
    preferredFormat: "hex",
    localStorageKey: "spectrum.demo",
    move: function (color) {

    },
    show: function () {

    },
    beforeShow: function () {

    },
    hide: function () {

    },
    change: function() {

    },
    palette: [

Solution

  • Demo

    Each thumb has the color stored as data, and the plugin has a callback that runs on showing the palette. We can use those things.

    Create a list of your primary colors

    var primary = ["rgb(208, 224, 227)", "rgb(201, 218, 248)", "rgb(207, 226, 243)", "rgb(217, 210, 233)", "rgb(234, 209, 220)"];
    

    Add the relevant CSS

    .primary-thumb{
        border: 1px solid #000;
    }
    

    In the show function of the pallete options, include code that will add the CSS class to thumbs that have those colors.

    show: function () {
        $('.sp-thumb-el').each(function(){
            var this_color = $(this).data('color');
            if ($.inArray(this_color, primary) >= 0){
                $(this).find('.sp-thumb-inner').addClass('primary-thumb');
            }
        });
    },
