    Please add color name tooltips to the color pop-up for formatting. I'm trying to format the colors on a bar chart, and I get a nice compact set of colors to choose from. Except that I'm colorblind. So I don't exactly have much confidence that my error series is going to show up in red. :-(

    I'm colorblind as well, Excel has the color pop up when you hover over the colors, and Power BI shows a color code, I think it just needs to be translated to an actual color.

    add to me to this list. It may be that most necessary thing to incorporate in the power bi. But, please try to make it for people like us.

    I'm also colorblind and to choose colors from the color picker, I have to search the web for the hexadecimal code to type it, because there's no Tooltip!!!
