# `wxColourPickerCtrl`
[🔗](https://github.com/erlang/otp/blob/master/lib/wx/src/gen/wxColourPickerCtrl.erl#L58)

This control allows the user to select a colour.

The generic implementation is a button which brings up a `m:wxColourDialog` when clicked.
Native implementation may differ but this is usually a (small) widget which give access to
the colour-chooser dialog. It is only available if `wxUSE_COLOURPICKERCTRL` is set to 1
(the default).

## Styles

This class supports the following styles:

* wxCLRP_DEFAULT_STYLE: The default style: 0.

* wxCLRP_USE_TEXTCTRL: Creates a text control to the left of the picker button which is
completely managed by the `m:wxColourPickerCtrl` and which can be used by the user to
specify a colour (see SetColour). The text control is automatically synchronized with
button's value. Use functions defined in `m:wxPickerBase` to modify the text control.

* wxCLRP_SHOW_LABEL: Shows the colour in HTML form (AABBCC) as colour button label (instead
of no label at all).

* wxCLRP_SHOW_ALPHA: Allows selecting opacity in the colour-chooser (effective under wxGTK
and wxOSX).

See:
* `m:wxColourDialog`

* `m:wxColourPickerEvent`

This class is derived, and can use functions, from:

* `m:wxPickerBase`

* `m:wxControl`

* `m:wxWindow`

* `m:wxEvtHandler`

```

Returns the currently selected colour.

# `new`

-spec new() -> wxColourPickerCtrl().
```

# `new`

```elixir
-spec new(Parent, Id) -> wxColourPickerCtrl() when Parent :: wxWindow:wxWindow(), Id :: integer().
```

# `new`

```elixir
-spec new(Parent, Id, [Option]) -> wxColourPickerCtrl()
             when
