    Hey again, could you tell me the hexadecimal for the colors that can be used in iOS Pages (specifically, the hex for the shades of blue)?

    The question does not make a lot of sense.

     

    Pages can use every hexadecimal color from 000000 (black) to ffffff (white). That's the definition of hexadecimal color codes. There's 16,777,216 possible colors in hexadecimal.

     

    If you want blue, just make sure the value for blue has more than the other 2. Hexadecimal color codes are split into 3 sets of of 2 digit numbers. 1 for red, one for green and one for blue. Depending on the values for these is the color you get.

     

    for instance:

    0000ff  is pure blue

    0022ff has a little green etc..

     

    That mean's there's like 2 million shades of blue you could use. There's no way you are going to get a list of them.

     

    You need to use your values to get the blue you want.

    I apologize, let me clarify: I'm looking for the colors available on iOS pages, which are (or were) limited, specifically the two blues in this picture.iOS Pages Blues.png

    They aren't necessarily limited. If you use the color wheel you can get any blue you want, though its harder to be precise.

    Still for the colors you show, the hexadecimal values are:

    #195dae for the top darker blue,

    and

    #5ea8f1 for the bottom lighter blue.

     

    Though Pages for iOS has no way to get the actual hexadecimal value for them.  You would need an extra App for that and use a screenshot.
