Saved Palettes for Background Colors

Would love to be able to save a custom palette for background colors (like you can in Canva) instead of being able to only access the last 6 most recently used.  I spent a lot of time finding the hex codes for a particular palette (like Pantone Spring/Summer 2022…) and would love to be able to easily access those colors/shades without having to rely on my handwritten cheat sheet once I get past 6 or 7 colors.  (Also open to other creators’ advise as to how they handle similar issues - TIA  :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @angelafuller729 ,

Thank you very much for the suggestion. I can see how this might make things more efficient for you and our creators. I’ll pass this along to our team for review.

All the very best :slightly_smiling_face:

Pádraig.

Brilliant idea! Great for customers too.

This would be great for text colors too… I suggested it years ago.

My own personal workaround is a simple text document that I keep open when I’m working. It has hex codes for all of the colors I use frequently, along with my boilerplate responses for common customer questions.

Oh my gosh it would be a dream come true to be able to save our own color palettes. The customizer has come a very long way since I started and I’m so grateful for all the improvements - but that is definitely the top of my wish list now! (a few new fonts a very close second)

I create a palette in Gimp then screenshot it and upload it to my design as a temporary layer. That way I can use the eyedropper to pick up colors from it and delete the layer when I am finished. 

@shellifitz   Brilliant.  Once I saw your comment I realized I had saved several palettes on Pinterest, making it so easy to upload them in jpg to my Zazzle images.  :slightly_smiling_face:

@angelafuller729  I am glad that helped!  

I will just add that I think it would be amazing if we could create palettes in the design tool also.  It would save alot of work and make the process so much easier. 

That is a great idea.
