How to change custom color brightness?

What it says on the tin, when I pick a custom color it's always a garish, bright color.

 

Putting custom hex codes in does not work. Why even have the hex code indicator?

 

I would like to turn my awful bright green into a less bright green. My theme does not have green for whatever reason, but that is not what I am asking. This should be really simple.

HI @CapnShanty,

 

Which custom color do you mean? Custom theme color or visual color? AFAIK, they all support custom color based on hex code.

{
   "name":"Test theme",
   "background":"#FFFFFF",
   "dataColors":[
      "#124191",
      "#00C9FF",
      "#001135",
      "#FF3154",
      "#E61E1E",
      "#E6AA1E",
      "#FFFB00",
      "#4BDD33",
      "#82BE1E",
      "#641464",
      "#EDF2F5",
      "#BEC8D2",
      "#98A2AE",
      "#4D5766",
      "#273142"
   ]
}

 

Notice: dax formula not support to setting color on contents.
