Selecting Colors Using the HSB Model

The HSB model defines colors through Hue (color type), Saturation (color intensity), and Brightness (lightness/darkness).

Select H (Hue) in the color picker.

Enter a value between 0° and 360° in the H text field.

Adjust saturation and brightness using the following methods:

  • Click to select a color block in the color area,
  • Drag the circular marker, or
  • Enter values in the S and B text fields.

Selecting Colors Using the RGB Model

The RGB model mixes red, green, and blue light to produce the desired color variations.

Enter values in the range of 0 to 255 in the R, G, and B text fields.

You can also select a point in the color area, which displays the blending effect of the two unselected RGB components.

Selecting Colors by Specifying a Hexadecimal Value

A hexadecimal (hex) value is a 6-digit code representing an RGB color value, commonly used in web and digital design.
