Predefined color books / libraries

Would love access to color libraries like the Pantone color books as I do use these even in my UX Design and prototypes.

(Original request: Just trying out the new Adobe Experience Design application and not to thrilled about the mac color picker. Would love to see the photoshop or illustrator color picker, color swatches and access to color libraries like the Pantone color books as I do use these even in my UX Design and prototypes.)

    @Peter Flynn

    Going back to your May request:
    c) The ability to load your own predefined color libraries for quick access within XD!

    Format - At least .ase, html and zip would be useful.

    @Jonathan: You can adjust brightness by dragging vertically in the 2D color square, or by using the "B" text field (you can type numbers, use up/down arrows to make fine adjustments, or use shift-up/down arrows to make large adjustments). In the future we would like to add more pathways for manipulating brightness, such as the ability to hold shift to drag *only* vertically or the ability to drag any number field (including the "B" field) like a scrubber/slider control.

    I'm ok with either Apple or PS/Illustrator Color Pickers but I would make sure to have the flexible set of options to choose from (Hex, Set, Crayons, Sliders, etc).

    One component in particular is the brightness slider. Why was that removed? Can you explain the motivation behind such a drastic minimization of options?

    Thanks!

    Color swatches (see https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/12931128-color-swatches) and nicer color picker (https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/12931890-better-color-picker) are both coming soon. I'm going to tweak the title & description of this a bit to make it more focused on standardized color libraries, if that's ok.

    Btw, could you let us know which of the following (or more than one) you're looking for?

    a) Stricter color management so your designs look the same across all screens, devices, and even printers
    b) Built-in standard color libraries like Pantone
    c) The ability to load your own predefined color libraries for quick access within XD (and if so, what format do you store these in?)
