RGB or Hex input for colors in Bitmap and Vector
THIS WILL NOT REPLACE THE CURRENT SYSTEM!
What I want is an input bar in the color choice area. Something like this:

This way, you wouldn't have to try to make a color with the slider bar. I think this is much more convenient. I'm not the best artist, but I know a lot of people would benefit from this.
To show my “support” of the Anti-Support Convention, I will not be counting/listing supporters.

Edits
- @LP_Play suggested that there would be a pop-up explaining what this is and how it works when the feature is first used.
- Using the color picker tool will auto-update the hex numbers.

- @Ninchanko made a beautiful explanation. If you don't understand, please read it before posting.

Current workaround:
costumes > Upload costume from file >
Pick up color tool > colored dot
And there's your color.
…but support.
set pen size to (100)right click on stage > save picture of stage
go to x:(0)y:(0)
set pen color to (join[0x](hex::grey))//hexadecimal
set pen color to (((r::list)*(65536))+(((g::pen)*(256))+(b::motion))//rgb
costumes > Upload costume from file >
Pick up color tool > colored dot
And there's your color.
…but support.

Support, though I think it should be tad bit seperated from the current system.

Support, though I think it should be tad bit seperated from the current system.So, what are you suggesting? A separate tab for the RGB and Hex options, a block, or something else?

I think they wrote that you use the pen block to create the color, that you then upload to the editor. But this is inconvinient si…Current workaround:This isn't suggesting a pen block.set pen size to (100)right click on stage > save picture of stage

Support, it will help me a lot instead of using default colors or selecting from HSL.
