Is there a color dialog for WPF?

I am looking for a color dialog for WPF? Is there one built in? Should I开发者_JAVA百科 build my own ? Or do Win 32 interop? If so, how?

I wrote a simple WPF Color picker which supports the following features a while back

• 3 different types of color swatch
• Opacity slider
• Mouse mover control for selecting color
• Sets to current color on open
• Standard dialog buttons

Here is the article in case you need it : http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/33001/WPF-A-Simple-Color-Picker-With-Preview

Heres a simple color picker using attached properties, should anyone be looking for example code

public static class BrushExtender
{
    public readonly static DependencyProperty BrushProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("Brush", typeof(Brush), typeof(BrushExtender), new PropertyMetadata(Brushes.Black,DoBrushChanged));

    public readonly static DependencyProperty RedChannelProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("RedChannel", typeof(int), typeof(BrushExtender), new PropertyMetadata(DoColorChangedRed));

    public readonly static DependencyProperty GreenChannelProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("GreenChannel", typeof(int), typeof(BrushExtender), new PropertyMetadata(DoColorChangedGreen));

    public readonly static DependencyProperty BlueChannelProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("BlueChannel", typeof(int), typeof(BrushExtender), new PropertyMetadata(DoColorChangedBlue));

    public readonly static DependencyProperty AlphaChannelProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("AlphaChannel", typeof(int), typeof(BrushExtender), new PropertyMetadata(DoColorChangedAlpha));

    public readonly static DependencyProperty ColourValueProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("ColourValue", typeof(string), typeof(BrushExtender), new PropertyMetadata(DoValueChanged));

    public static void SetRedChannel(DependencyObject o, int value)
    {
        o.SetValue(RedChannelProperty, value);
    }

    public static void SetGreenChannel(DependencyObject o, int value)
    {
        o.SetValue(GreenChannelProperty, value);
    }

    public static void SetBlueChannel(DependencyObject o, int value)
    {
        o.SetValue(BlueChannelProperty, value);
    }

    public static void SetAlphaChannel(DependencyObject o, int value)
    {
        o.SetValue(AlphaChannelProperty, value);
    }

    public static void SetBrush(DependencyObject o, SolidColorBrush brush)
    {
        o.SetValue(BrushProperty, brush);
    }

    public static void SetColourValue(DependencyObject o, string value)
    {
        o.SetValue(ColourValueProperty, value);
    }

    private static void DoColorChangedRed(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        var color = ((SolidColorBrush)d.GetValue(BrushProperty)).Color;
        DoColorChange(d, (int)e.NewValue, c => c.R, () => Color.FromArgb(color.A, ((byte)(int)e.NewValue), color.G , color.B));
    }

    private static void DoColorChangedGreen(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        var color = ((SolidColorBrush)d.GetValue(BrushProperty)).Color;
        DoColorChange(d, (int)e.NewValue, c => c.G, () => Color.FromArgb(color.A, color.R, ((byte)(int)e.NewValue), color.B));
    }

    private static void DoColorChangedBlue(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        var color = ((SolidColorBrush)d.GetValue(BrushProperty)).Color;
        DoColorChange(d, (int)e.NewValue, c => c.B, () => Color.FromArgb(color.A, color.R, color.G, (byte)(int)e.NewValue));
    }

    private static void DoColorChangedAlpha(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        var color = ((SolidColorBrush)d.GetValue(BrushProperty)).Color;
        DoColorChange(d, (int)e.NewValue, c => c.A, () => Color.FromArgb((byte)(int)e.NewValue, color.R, color.G, color.B));
    }

    private static void DoColorChange(DependencyObject d, int newValue, Func<Color, int> colorCompare, Func<Color> getColor)
    {
        var color = ((SolidColorBrush)d.GetValue(BrushProperty)).Color;
        if (colorCompare(color) == newValue)
            return;
        var newBrush = new SolidColorBrush(getColor());
        d.SetValue(BrushProperty, newBrush);
        d.SetValue(ColourValueProperty, newBrush.Color.ToString());
    }

    private static void DoValueChanged(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        var color = ((SolidColorBrush)d.GetValue(BrushProperty)).Color;
        if (color.ToString() == (string)e.NewValue)
            return;
        Color? newColour = null;
        try
        {
            newColour = (Color) ColorConverter.ConvertFromString((string) e.NewValue);
        }
        catch{}
        if (newColour == null)
            return;
        var newBrush = new SolidColorBrush(newColour.Value);
        d.SetValue(BrushProperty, newBrush);
    }


    private static void DoBrushChanged(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.NewValue == e.OldValue)
            return;
        var colour = ((SolidColorBrush)e.NewValue).Color;
        d.SetValue(RedChannelProperty,(int)colour.R);
        d.SetValue(GreenChannelProperty,(int)colour.G);
        d.SetValue(BlueChannelProperty,(int)colour.B);
        d.SetValue(AlphaChannelProperty,(int)colour.A);
        d.SetValue(ColourValueProperty,colour.ToString());
    }
}

and here it is being used

You can easily use the ColorDialog available from classic Windows Forms.

using System.Windows.Forms;

ColorDialog colorDialog = new ColorDialog();

if (colorDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
    // do some stuff with colors...
}

I was forced to make such dialog myself. Please look at WPFColorLib - it's FOSS.
