Using the Adobe Color Picker
The Adobe Color Picker lets you select a color by choosing from a color spectrum or by defining colors numerically. The Adobe Color Picker can be used for setting the foreground color, background color, and text color. In Photoshop, it is also used for setting target colors in some color and tonal adjustment commands, the stop colors in the Gradient Editor, the filter color in the Photo Filter command, and the color in a fill layer, certain layer styles, and shape layers.
When a color is selected in the Adobe Color Picker, the numeric values for HSB, RGB, Lab, CMYK, and hexadecimal numbers are simultaneously displayed. This is useful for viewing how a color is described by the different color modes.
