When using the eyedroppper/color picker via the shortcut ‘I’, you can select a color and the RGB value is copied to the clipboard, letting you paste this value to copy the color. (Very nice feature!)

See below:
 

 

However, when pasting the value from your clipboard, the format is like: RGB 151 71 255. Figma does not recognise this a color when trying to use this value. Please see below, when pasting the RGB value in to a field that expects a colour, the RGB text at the start prevents Figma from recognising the 151 71 255 following it:

 

Existing Process:

 

Pasting the result of the Pick Color tool, automatically includes the text ‘RGB’
Result is #BBBBBB or RGB 187 187 187
You have to remove the ‘RGB’ yourself
Once RGB is removed, then Figma will interpret the color

Suggested Process:

Pasting the result of the Pick Color tool
 
Figma recognised the 151 71 255 then changed the color to the RGB value provided.
