Draw colors with ints
Apr 6th, 2010, 9:18am  
Hello all!

I'm trying to use colors but I need to use integers and not the color type.

So far I only managed shades of grey. How do I do for color?

did you realize that you can use 3 values RGB or HSB to create color ?

there are different ways to use commands like fill or stroke

fill(gray)
fill(gray, alpha)
fill(value1, value2, value3)
fill(value1, value2, value3, alpha)
fill(color)
fill(color, alpha)
fill(hex)
fill(hex, alpha)

if that wasnt exactly what you asked for please make an example and describe your problem.

These ambiguous method signatures suck.

I think the 'gray' options should perhaps be removed - and as a happy side-effect it might inject some more colour into the world!
