Color Palettes

A system to keep UnityEngine.Graphic colors consistent throughout a project.

Example

In this palette, I've declared three name-color pairs corresponding to the background, text, and an accent color. You can add as many name-color pairs, but the names should be unique from each other.

In this palette container, I've added the dark theme from before, as well as other themes. I can easily swap between them by checking the appropriate box (as well as through custom scripts).

I've added an ApplyColorPalette component to Image component, and set it to use the "accent" color from the previous palette container. Notice that the container itself acts as a palette. (We could have just as easily dropped in a single color palette instance as well).
