@Quemac ,
I agree with you — honestly I didn’t even realize that this feature had changed (I don’t use it very often). I think it’s strange that it is now this color slider as it offers less granular selection.
I’ve opened this feature request on our Github for our developers to review:

### Description
Previously when using a custom theme color, there was a more ad… vanced color picker. Now, there is only a color "slider" that doesn't allow for granular color selection, nor can you use the system color picker to select a custom color.

I think a simple solution for this would be to include a hex code option so users can input the exact color they'd like to use for their theme.
