How can I manage the swatches in the color picker component?

The Color Picker in OnSong allows you to use default colors or create new ones.  You can learn more about the color picker in our tutorial video.

Accessing Colors
The color picker fits the size of the menu but can contain more switches to choose from. To access more than the preset colors, just swipe left or right.

Adding New Colors
To add a new color, swipe over the picker to view contents on the right to view the + button.  Tap on this to open the Color Builder to create a new color and add it to the available switches.

Modifying a Color
You can edit a switch by double-tapping on the switch to open the Color Builder.  Simply change the color and tap Done to modify the color in place.  You could alternative tap on the + button in the editor to create a new swatch with a modified color.

Deleting a Color
You can delete a color from the color picker by using an upward "Flicking" gesture. Locate the switch and then flick up on the swatch to delete it from the list.

Reordering Colors
You can also change the place of colors in the color picker by tapping and holding on a swatch and moving it elsewhere in the list.
