Drawn at this width and never stretched past it. Below it, controls, text and spacing step down from the box the block sits in, not the window.
When to use it
Where Color Pickers earns its place
Reach for Color Pickers
- A theme editor where someone sets the colors the product will inherit
- Design and diagramming tools, where color is chosen many times in a session
- Building a gradient that will be pasted into a stylesheet
- Recoloring a label, a calendar or a category from the row it belongs to
Reach for something else
- The product has a palette and the answer should come from it: show swatches, because a free spectrum invites colors that break the theme
- The color carries meaning for a status or a category; bind it to the value in code with a fixed set of tokens so it means the same thing everywhere
- Precision work on a phone: a saturation area under a fingertip cannot resolve what a pointer can, so lead with a hex field and a swatch grid

- Named controlsEvery icon-only button keeps a text label, so a screen reader can say what it does.
- Keyboard firstEvery control is reachable with Tab, and its focus ring stays visible.
- More than colourA state never rides on colour alone; a mark or a word goes with it.
- Contrast holdsRetheme freely, but keep text at or above the contrast it ships with.
- Calm motionFor visitors who ask for reduced motion, things simply appear.
- Room to hitTargets stay at least 24px, with space between neighbours.

Questions about Choose colour.
What is the Choose colour block?
Choose colour is a Color Pickers block from Orvain UI, built for React and Vue with a matching Figma frame. Best for a compact colour field with the parts that were missing.
What is the Choose colour block made of?
6 parts: title with the live hex chip; small area; hue and opacity; field with swatch, hex and opacity; clear that leaves a slashed No colour; and recent colours. Keep them all, or drop the ones your product does not need; the rest of the block holds together without them.
Is the Choose colour block responsive?
Yes. It is drawn at 460px and never stretched past that. Below it, its controls, text and spacing step down with the container the block sits in rather than the browser window, so it holds up in a sidebar, a tablet layout and a 390px phone without clipping or sideways scrolling.
Is the Choose colour block accessible?
It ships with text labels on every icon-only button, full keyboard reach with a visible focus ring, states that never rely on colour alone, text contrast that holds when you retheme it, no animation for visitors who ask for reduced motion, and click targets of at least 24px.
How do I add the Choose colour block to my project?
It is part of every Orvain Library plan: the React and Vue code, its frame in the Orvain Figma file, and the Orvain MCP server. With the MCP connected, an AI assistant such as Claude Code, Cursor or v0 can build it from one line: “Add the Orvain Choose colour block to this page.”
When should I not use a Color Pickers block?
The product has a palette and the answer should come from it: show swatches, because a free spectrum invites colors that break the theme.
