[Feature Request] Hex/RGB Color Values for Tags #264

Open coolesding opened 2 months ago

coolesding commented 2 months ago

I've just started using TagStudio and noticed that Tags have hardcoded colour values, for example Red or Blue instead of #FF0000 or #0000FF. Having the option to use Hex or RGB values for Tag Colouring would give a lot of additional flexibility (and it would make the tags even prettier!).

I would suggest keeping the default colour values but also adding a colour ring and a text field for putting in RGB/Hex values.

Also, I looked at other issues to see if someone asked for something like this before and I don't know if I was supposed to use some kind of template, sorry if I had to, I didn't see any!

There's been a lot of planning and discussion going on about this feature in the Discord, although I'm surprised to see there wasn't already an open issue on it! There's currently plans for a user-defined color system that will allow you to create additional custom colors that'll appear as selections when tagging (with a better UI than a dropdown). This way you get the benefits of choosing your own hex colors, in addition to being able to quickly update a color that will reflect across all existing uses of that color.
