Handle no color support in EJ2 TypeScript Color picker control
16 Dec 202314 minutes to read
The ColorPicker component supports no color functionality. By clicking the no color tile from palette, the selected color becomes empty and considered as no color has been selected from color picker.
Default no color
To achieve this, set noColor property as true.
In the following sample, the first tile of the color palette represents the no color tile. By clicking the no color tile you can achieve the above functionalities.
import { ColorPicker, ColorPickerEventArgs } from '@syncfusion/ej2-inputs';
import { enableRipple } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
let preview: HTMLElement = document.getElementById('preview');
let colorPicker: ColorPicker = new ColorPicker(
{
mode: "Palette",
value: "#ba68c8",
showButtons: false,
modeSwitcher: false,
//To enable no color support
noColor: true,
change: (args: ColorPickerEventArgs): void => {
preview.style.backgroundColor = args.currentValue.hex;
preview.textContent = args.currentValue.hex ? args.currentValue.hex : 'No color';
}
},
'#element');
preview.style.backgroundColor = "#ba68c8";
preview.textContent = "#ba68c8";<!DOCTYPE html>
