Default Setting fonts and Shapes to specific RGB color in Office for Mac

I am a recent Mac user and have not found the similar functionality of
setting a color (font, fill, etc) to a specific RGB value. I have the values
I need in RGB, CYMK, Pantone and Web, but I cannot locate any field in which
to type them. Any advice is great...

Default Setting fonts and Shapes to specific RGB color in Office for Mac

I can't swear that Mac has the same controls, but in Windows versions, when
you select the color (font color, fill color, shading color), there is a
limited palette of colored squares and a button or menu item for More
Colors. Select More Colors and then the Custom tab, which is where you can
enter RGB values.

From any colour selection dialog click More Colors Custom and enter a
value.
For font colours, save the result as a character style for ease of
formatting.
