Hi @j.khakase , Are you looking for the Hue, HSB Color Space view? If that’s the case click the H radio button:

 

 

Note that in InDesign the Radio buttons control the color space view and the number fields determine the chosen color space—unlike PS and AI, InDesign lets you mix HSB, RGB, Lab, and CMYK color objects on the same page. Here I’m viewing the Hue space, but the color I am selecting is RGB because my cursor is in the R field—the add swatch button reads Add RGB Swatch:

How do ou see it different. In InDesign you can choose between Lab or Table values Both have the same result as if you would choose the same system in the other programs.
