Color Area

Allows users to adjust two channels of an RGB, HSL, or HSB color value against a two-dimensional gradient background.

Import

Copyts
import { ColorArea } from "@kobalte/core/color-area";
// or
import { Root, Background, ... } from "@kobalte/core/color-area";

Copyts
import { ColorArea } from "@kobalte/core/color-area";
// or
import { Root, Background, ... } from "@kobalte/core/color-area";

Features

Can be controlled or uncontrolled.
Support for adjusting two-channel values of an RGB, HSL or HSB color value.
Pressing on the color area background moves the thumb to that position.
Supports using the arrow keys, for changing value by step, as well as shift + arrow key, page up/down, home, and end keys, for changing the value by page step.
Support for disabling the color area.
Prevents text selection while dragging.
Exposed to assistive technology as a 2D slider element via ARIA.
Uses two hidden native input elements within a group to support touch screen readers.
Automatic ARIA labeling using the localized channel names by default.
Support for mirroring in RTL locales.

Anatomy

The color area consists of:

ColorArea: The root container for the color area.
ColorArea.Background: The component that visually represents the range of colors from which a user can select.
ColorArea.Thumb: The thumb that is used to visually indicate a value in the color area background.
ColorArea.HiddenInputX: The horizontal native html input that is visually hidden in the color area thumb.
ColorArea.HiddenInputY: The vertical native html input that is visually hidden in the color area thumb.
ColorArea.Label: The label that gives the user information on the color area.

Copytsx
<ColorArea>
  <ColorArea.Label />
  <ColorArea.Background>
    <ColorArea.Thumb>
      <ColorArea.HiddenInputX />
      <ColorArea.HiddenInputY />
    </ColorArea.Thumb>
  </ColorArea.Track>
</ColorArea>

Copytsx
<ColorArea>
  <ColorArea.Label />
  <ColorArea.Background>
    <ColorArea.Thumb>
      <ColorArea.HiddenInputX />
      <ColorArea.HiddenInputY />
    </ColorArea.Thumb>
  </ColorArea.Track>
</ColorArea>

Example

Copytsx
import { ColorArea } from "@kobalte/core/color-area";
import { parseColor } from "@kobalte/utils";
import "./style.css";

function App() {
  return (
    <ColorArea class="ColorAreaRoot">

          <ColorArea.HiddenInputY />
        </ColorArea.Thumb>
      </ColorArea.Background>
    </ColorArea>
  );
}

Copytsx
import { ColorArea } from "@kobalte/core/color-area";
import { parseColor } from "@kobalte/utils";
import "./style.css";

function App() {
  return (
    <ColorArea class="ColorAreaRoot">
      <ColorArea.Label class="ColorAreaLabel">Label</ColorArea.Label>
      <ColorArea.Background class="ColorAreaBackground">
        <ColorArea.Thumb class="ColorAreaThumb">
          <ColorArea.HiddenInputX />
          <ColorArea.HiddenInputY />
        </ColorArea.Thumb>
      </ColorArea.Background>
    </ColorArea>
  );
}

Usage

The value provided to defaultValue or value should be Color object. You can obtain a Color object by using the parseColor function to parse a color from a string. The xChannel and yChannel must be one of the channels included in the color value, for example, for RGB colors, the "red", "green", and "blue" channels are available. If no xChannel or yChannel is provided, for the RGB color space, the red color channel maps to the horizontal axis or xChannel, and the green color channel maps to the vertical axis or yChannel. Similarly, for the HSL and HSB color spaces, the hue color channel maps to the horizontal axis or xChannel, and the saturation color channel maps to the vertical axis or yChannel.

	<p>Current color value: {value().toString("hsl")}</p>

xChannel and yChannel

The color channel for each axis of a color area can be specified using the xChannel and yChannel props. An array of channel names for a color can be returned using the color.getColorChannels method.

Label

Copytsx
const [value, setValue] = createSignal(parseColor("rgb(100, 149, 237)"));
const [rChannel, gChannel, bChannel] = value().getColorChannels();

<ColorArea value={value()} onChange={setValue} xChannel={gChannel} yChannel={bChannel}>
	<ColorArea.Label>Label</ColorArea.Label>
	<ColorArea.Background>
		<ColorArea.Thumb>
			<ColorArea.HiddenInputX />
			<ColorArea.HiddenInputY />
		</ColorArea.Thumb>
	</ColorArea.Background>
</ColorArea>;

Copytsx
const [value, setValue] = createSignal(parseColor("rgb(100, 149, 237)"));
const [rChannel, gChannel, bChannel] = value().getColorChannels();

<ColorArea value={value()} onChange={setValue} xChannel={gChannel} yChannel={bChannel}>
	<ColorArea.Label>Label</ColorArea.Label>
	<ColorArea.Background>
		<ColorArea.Thumb>
			<ColorArea.HiddenInputX />
			<ColorArea.HiddenInputY />
		</ColorArea.Thumb>
	</ColorArea.Background>
</ColorArea>;

HTML forms

ColorArea supports the xName and yName props for integration with HTML forms.
