Create a color wheel / palette from two colors

New Here ,
Jun 02, 2023 Jun 02, 2023

Hello there!

There are two base colors, a blue and a green, that I would like to use to create a full color palette (complementary yellow, red, purple, etc). 

 

Is there a way in Adobe Color to do this?

Right now only one base color is supported. But we will check on your request for future.
In the interim, just select “Custom” harmony rule from left panel and you can try adjusting all 5 colors separately?

Syed,

Thank you very much for the response. I suppose... the issue is that I don't know what else to choose when I do custom 🙂 
But that's ok. I apprciate the response and your time.

I also agree it would be ideal to allow multiple colors to be the base to create secondary colors. Find it harder that it doesnt allow this either

Hey @zeddra and @nataliag53221278 

A work around of a sort.

Adobe Library Adding colours.png

1) Let's take the "Red Box" press the trash can. That will delete the colour.
2) Press the "+" to Add Swatch

3) A new circle will appear. You can move that circle anywhere on the "Colour Wheel". The other swatches stay where they are giving you a "Base".

Essentially, erase the "colours" you don't want and custom build your "colour palette" by moving the new circles around on the "colour circle". 😄

Hope this helps. Take your time and enjoy.

Cheers
O.Nate
