Advanced Colors For Mac

Finding the right color palette and then getting the HEX or RBG codes to use them in your projects can be quite tedious without the right tools.

Advanced Colors brings to the table a collection of curated color palettes that you can browse with ease, but can also generate some random groups.

The Advanced Colors user interface is represented by a single panel where you get to preview five colors included in each palette together with their name and HEX or RGB code. The window cannot be resized, and you don’t get to customize its appearance in any way.

You get to interact with the application by using your mouse or various hotkeys, but Advanced Colors delivers very few indications within its panel: to get a detailed list with all current capabilities, please visit the project’s website.

Upon launch, Advanced Colors automatically generates a color palette, and you can change the shades either by clicking with your mouse on the color thumbnail or by pressing the space bar.

In the latter case, Advanced Colors creates a new collection based on a set of curated colors. To get the color code on your clipboard, just click with your mouse below the color thumbnail.

Note that you can switch between the RGB or HEX color codes by pressing either the R or H. Moreover, you can generate pastel palettes by pressing the P key, monochrome palettes by pressing M, single color palettes by pressing the T key, or random color palettes by pressing A.

To sum up, Advanced Colors offers you the possibility to generate various types of color palettes effortlessly.

The Advanced Colors app can provide the color names, but also the RGB and HEX codes to be used in your own projects.
