Hi
When I create sub menu in menu component and add color : #77777 property in the icon category, menu doesn't create color picker for the item and doesn't change color.

What version are you using? I can’t reproduce on 8.0.6/8.0.7, so I’m pretty sure this is a fixed bug.

Hi
I use 8.0.3.
by the way it’s nice if we have style for color of icon.

@PGriffith has this bug been regressed at some point? I'm using ver 8.1.22 and when I use a hex color string (eg: #ffffff), it does not show the color picker.

I've added a broader Feature Request for this, along with:

  • View path picker
  • Icon path picker
  • Tag path picker
  • Image path picker
  • ...

including inheritance through a property binding connection.

You get the color picker if the "schema" behind the particular property editor says "x.y.z.color is a type: color property".
So it won't show up for arbitrary custom properties, no matter what you name them, but it should show up for all first party properties where you enter a color. That's the bug that I was alluding to in my earlier post.

Since it sounds like you're asking for the ability to define a custom schema for arbitrary properties, which would be a new feature, you're actually asking for something that we're already tracking internally; see:
