I'm using the latest Mac version of Visual Studio Code and I can't figure out how to make the built-in color picker default to hex values when I'm editing a CSS value color. Currently, it's defaulting to rgba values. The Color Picker document shows it displaying hex values. I opened my settings and searched for "color" and "color picker" I did not see a pertinent setting. How do I change the default to hex values?
Visual Studio Code now has a really useful color picker built-in
Color Picker
Change the color theme On the menu bar, choose Tools > Options. In the options list, choose Environment > General. In the Color theme list, choose either the default Dark theme, the Light theme, the Blue theme, or the Blue (Extra Contrast) theme.
Color Picker for VS Code. Helper with GUI to generate color codes such as CSS color notations. And, a command Convert Color to change the color notation. A dialog box is shown by pressing Alt + C P keys or command Pick Color. If a cursor is positioned on a string that is color notation at that time, that string is selected as target for editing.
Color themes let you modify the colors in Visual Studio Code's user interface to suit your preferences and work environment. Selecting the Color Theme In VS Code, open the Color Theme picker with File > Preferences > Color Theme .
Then, launch the Command Pallete ( Ctrl + Shift + P or Cmd + Shift + P) and type ext install, and then look for "Color Picker". Note: If a few NPM modules that the extension uses are not found in your computer, those will be installed automatically. Then, only when first launching, it may take some little time for setting up.
To customize the themes that are used when a color scheme changes, you can set the preferred light, dark, and high contrast themes with the settings: You can customize your active color theme with the workbench.colorCustomizations and editor.tokenColorCustomizations user settings.
To switch color mode just click the bar with color code.
But according to this ticket you can not switch to HEX when opacity is not set to maximum.
