Color Picker in Xcode?

This blog is normally dedicated to Swift but I wanted to create a quick post for all my friends that use Xcode and didn't know about the built-in color picker and color saver.
(Not sure if it is really called a "color saver". I just made that up! :D)

Where is it?

You want to click on the left side of the color selector:

This will bring up the color selector:
From here you can click on the eye dropper tool, pick a color and then you can save that color by dragging the color from the big square to one of the smaller squares.

Note: The colors in the color saver/color manager persist across all projects.
(Xcode 7.3)

    1. It is gone from Color Assets, unfortunately. I submitted a feature request to Apple to bring it back. They asked for more details and I explained it to them. So hopefully we'll see it come back!
