## Properties

      "cancel-button"            GtkWidget*            : Read
      "color-selection"          GtkWidget*            : Read
      "help-button"              GtkWidget*            : Read

## Description

The GtkColorSelectionDialog provides a standard dialog which allows the user to select a color much like the GtkFileChooserDialog provides a standard dialog for file selection.

Use `gtk_color_selection_dialog_get_color_selection()` to get the GtkColorSelection widget contained within the dialog. Use this widget and its `gtk_color_selection_get_current_color()` function to gain access to the selected color. Connect a handler for this widget's "color-changed" signal to be notified when the color changes.

### GtkColorSelectionDialog as GtkBuildable

The GtkColorSelectionDialog implementation of the GtkBuildable interface exposes the embedded GtkColorSelection as internal child with the name "color_selection". It also exposes the buttons with the names "ok_button", "cancel_button" and "help_button".
