Hey guys, I am trying to provide a

ColorPalette

appwide like that:

object AppColors {
    private val primaryColor: Color = Color(0x464763)

    val lightPalette: ColorPalette = lightColorPalette(
        primary = primaryColor
    )

    val darkPalette: ColorPalette = darkColorPalette(
        primary = primaryColor
    )

    @Composable
    val currentPalette: ColorPalette
        get() = if (isSystemInDarkTheme()) darkPalette else lightPalette
}

When I use it for my

MaterialTheme(colors = AppColors.currentPalette) { … }

, the primary color is just invisible or set to transparent, what am I doing wrong? If I dont overwrite the primary, then everything works as expected (images in thread).

can you try to write

Color(0xFF464763)

oof 🤦 thanks

it is too easy to make this mistake, we should do it automatically in some way. can you please file a bug so we we will not forget to make it easier? thanks!

Are you still having this issue? I noticed we can't pass a @Composable ColorPalette or a @Composable Typography to

MaterialTheme

No it worked after I corrected the hex

FWIW the new color picker in Studio can also help in the future on the line

Color

is used via the gutter icon. Also very useful for converting alpha % to hex.

Just an update, what I said before is not actually an issue. The problem is having a backing field for the @Composable ColorPalette, not the fact that it's @Composable https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/154531805
