Colorpicker with RGBA (alphaopacity) in Theme-customizer

I'm looking to find a working colorpicker for the theme-customizer in the admin-panel (working on a theme where I want the user to be able to change the colors via an interface)

I've found this one: http://pluto.kiwi.nz/2014/07/how-to...phaopacity-to-the-wordpress-theme-customizer/

Only problem is it doesn't interface sleekly with the current setup, and I'd have to rewrite a lot of content in functions.php to get this to work.

Ideally, what I'm looking for is an pure extension of the WP_Customizer_Color_Control class, of course with the proper CSS / JS-files needed.

The main thing lacking for the above mentioned replacement is that the default-color doesn't seem to work properly (I haven't played around with it that much, but I can't get it to register the default color properly). Given that I need the color-control for several different colors, assigning the colors in the class itself is not an option.

Have anyone seen a working example of a colorpicker able to replace the built-in colorpicker in Wordpress? (Or know anything about when Wordpress will get their heads out of their asses and include a proper colorpicker in the built-in interface?)

 

Are you referring to this?

I note the latest merge was like 20 days ago or something. Convo about it here https://github.com/Automattic/Iris/issues/13

 

Ah, that looks awesome. I'll have a proper look at it as soon as I'm in front of my computer

 

Cool glad I could help. You are always helping people around here.
