Silverlight Color Picker Control

Your users can select a color from a palette of colors in a dropdown with the Infragistics xamColorPicker™ control, which features a full spectrum of functionality. Users can simply select a color box from a predetermined palette of colors as they might in any paint program or Microsoft Office® 2010. If your users have an eye for a more exquisite color that they would like to synthesize for themselves, you can make available to them our color picker's Advanced Color Editor (ACE) that lets your users compose a color using any of the Red Green Blue (RGB), Hue Saturation Luminosity (HSL) or Cyan Magenta Yellow Black (CMYK) color models with instant visual feedback. Time-saving features like the most recently-used color palette and derived palettes make quickly returning to favorite colors easy.
