# C1ColorPicker Task-Based Help

## Content



The task-based help assumes that you are familiar with programming in Visual Studio .NET and know how to use the [C1ColorPicker](/componentone/api/wpf/online-extended/dotnet-framework-api/C1.WPF.Extended.4.6.2/C1.WPF.Extended.C1ColorPicker.html) control in general. If you are unfamiliar with the **ColorPicker for WPF and Silverlight** product, please see [Quick Start: ColorPicker for WPF](/componentone/docs/wpf/online-extended/ColorPicker/ColorPickerforWPFQuickStart) or [Quick Start: ColorPicker for Silverlight](/componentone/docs/wpf/online-extended/ColorPicker/ColorPicker_for_Silverlight_Quick_Start) first.

Each topic in this section provides a solution for specific tasks using **ColorPicker for WPF and Silverlight**.

Each task-based help topic also assumes that you have created a new WPF project.
