Thank you for your feedback! To provide a distinct color that indicates a selection while still being harmonious with #FFFFCC , I suggest a soft peach color that contrasts well without being too bold. Here’s the updated color palette:

json
{
  "palette_name": "Selection Indication Colors",
  "colors": [
    {
      "name": "Light Yellow",
      "hex_code": "
          
          #FFFFCC
       "  // Original color for dropdowns
    },
    {
      "name": "Soft Peach",
      "hex_code": "
          
          #FFD8B1
       "  // Suggested color for indicating selection
    }
  ]
}

In this palette, “Soft Peach” ( #FFD8B1 ) provides a gentle contrast to “Light Yellow” ( #FFFFCC ) and clearly indicates that a selection has been made without being overly similar to #DFFFD6 .

Does this combination meet your needs, or would you like to see more options?
