Notion Creatives: Convert RGB To HEX And Vice Versa

🖌 Convert Colors

Do you have a color library that needs some conversions? Using a Notion formula, the replace function and regular expressions in particular, a user can convert RGB to HEX and vice versa. I also discuss how to extract or remove items in a list of three divided by commas. Copy the Notion template below.

Notion Formula Tips

These tips explain how to separate values in a list of three, divided by a comma (ie. the RGB syntax 220, 20, 60).

Removing numbers in the sequence:

1. Remove First Number

replace(prop("RGB"), "[^,]*, ", "")

2. Remove Middle Number

replace(prop("RGB"), ",[^,]*", "")

3. Remove Last Number

replace(prop("RGB"), ",[^,]*$", "")

Isolating numbers in the sequence:

1. Isolate First Number

replaceAll(replace(prop("RGB"), "(?:[^,]*, ){0}", ""), ",.*", "")

2. Isolate Second Number

replaceAll(replace(prop("RGB"), "(?:[^,]*, ){1}", ""), ",.*", "")

3. Isolate Third Number

replaceAll(replace(prop("RGB"), "(?:[^,]*, ){2}", ""), ",.*", "")
