  I tried migrating my project to 6.0 and realized that C1ColorPicker is not in Net 6.0.
  
  Will it be part of Net 6.0?

  Thanks,

  Hello Hai,

  The C1ColorPicker control has already been ported to .NET 6. JFYI, the C1ColorPicker and C1FontPicker controls have been separated in the C1.Win.Input.Pickers package in .NET 6. Therefore, please install this package into your project to use the C1ColorPicker control. The NuGet link for the package is given below.

  (https://www.nuget.org/packages/C1.Win.Input.Pickers/6.0.20223.588)

  Best Regards,

  Kartik

  Kartik,

  That’s great. It changes the namespace. Is there a mapping of old 4.5 components to new 6.0 components that we can use for reference?

  Thanks,

  Hello Hai,

  Unfortunately, there is no mapping as such. Most of the controls come with similar package names as before and you can refer to our “.NET 7 Support Update” blog that shows which controls are already ported to .NET6 and which ones are planned.

  (https://www.grapecity.com/blogs/componentone-net-7-support-updates)

  Also, to open/close the C1ColorPicker’s dropdown programmatically, you can set the C1ColorPicker.DroppedDown (boolean) property to true/false respectively.

  Best Regards,

  Kartik

  Hi Kartik,

  I ran into another issue with this. In the Net 4.0 implementation, I added a ColorPicker to a menustrip and make it not visible (because I didn’t need it shown). I used the _colorPicker.OpenDropDown(); approach to show the picker dialog the other menu items.

  In 8.0, this does not work because if I make _colorPicker.Visible = false; then the dropdown does not show. Is there a way to hide the color picker in the menustrip, but still make the dropdown show like it was in 4.0?

  Hi,

  We could see the difference in behavior between the .NET FW and .NET 8.0 C1ColorPicker. We have shared the observations with the development team to get their insights on it and will let you know the updates as soon as possible.
