You can enter such value in color dialog of that combobox, you cannot enter it directly.

Problem is color dialog has NOT edit for HEX value on osx yosemite, every where is graphic selection one decimal edit place. Select any color from this dialog, OI show HEX value.

I also found this confusing a bit ago when I wanted to set colors.
I resorted to loading a color picker, tuning the colors I wanted and storing those values later to be used in a case statement.
The problem was in the Object Inspector one cannot put value, one must use the drop down color picker. In the color picker one can only put a color in the form of #AABBCC. But what comes back from the Picker is a value in the form $00CCBBAA.
What one would want is to have the picker allow input that is the same as what as what the picker outputs, ja?
I just worked around it, but since it seems to be a confusion for more than just myself, I throw in these two cents... ;-)

The color picker is the system color picker. It may use HTML notation, which uses RGB or RRGGBB.
TColor uses BBGGRR.

You can override the TColorPropertyEditor.
Either change the shown value to your system color picker, or implement your own color picker.

Ha! I should have known that!
Lazarus/pascal is infinitely customizable. Been out of the pascal environment for so long I'm forgetting the basics.
Thanks Mattias, I will look into the override...
BTW, super job. You are all my heroes.
