String To Color

What It Does

Converts a text representation of a color into a color object. This lets you transform hex codes, color names, or CSS color functions into usable color objects for your graph.

Inputs

Name	Description	Type	Required
color	The color string to convert (e.g., "#FF0000", "red", "rgb(255,0,0)")	String	Yes

Outputs

Name	Description	Type
color	The parsed color as a color object	Color

How to Use It

1. Drag the String to Color node into your graph.

2. Connect a text string (like "#3366CC", "blue", or "hsl(210, 100%, 50%)") to the "color" input.

3. Run the graph—your output will be a color object that can be used with other color nodes.

Tips

• The node accepts many formats: hex codes, color names, RGB, HSL, and more.

• Use this to convert color data from APIs, user inputs, or imported design tokens.
