Frequently asked questions
How do I copy a HEX code?
Click the code on any swatch to copy that HEX value. "Copy all" copies all five colors at once.
What is color locking?
Press the lock icon to freeze that color; only the others change on the next palette. Handy for exploring schemes around a base color.
How do the schemes differ?
Analogous uses nearby hues for a calm mix; complementary mixes opposite hues for strong contrast. Pastel gives light soft tones, vivid gives bright saturated tones.
