Perspective view custom property for color

Ignition

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.

And now? :slight_smile: :slight_smile: I assume this will be available for session custom props too? maybe in 8.3? :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

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?

Yes, exactly.

That's the current plan, plus/minus a month or so. Ultimately, it'll be available when it's ready.
