I am also able to replicate this in 8.1.4 Also, doesn’t matter if the hex is upper or lower case. If I bind a color property to the custom property it works properly, but still does not show the color picker next to the custom property. ---

I think the color treatment is dictated by the property ‘schema’, which is the underlying meta-layer that attempts to marshal properties into the right shape. We’ve got a somewhat theoretical feature ticket planned that will expose some way to provide schemas to custom properties on a view - which would allow you (as the view designer) to “restrict” the input and output types. ---

Don't expect this in 8.3.0. ---

So, not in 8.3.0, but possible in a later 8.3 release? Is this timeline still accurate? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/7/e/7ea2f7e3716a7f735575147f67dbd6289d15deaa.png) ---
