[COLORS!] Color list

insignia96 · May 9, 2009

Okay,

This is my first release so be gentle.

Basically what this is is a list of colors in the format of

$colorname = 0x000000

Why do we need this? Well imagine you want your background to be red! well just do this

GUISetBkColor( -1, $red )

Now at this point im sure youre think, so what! you defined the color red! I defined 140 individual colors all available by calling the _ShowColorList() command.

This command tells you the name of each color and gives you a visual preview of how it looks!

I like the idea looks great, why not put the files on this site? I know when I use a color for my programs I add the color one varable at a time by looks in a file with the color and the hex, this would save time for me

Why orange?

Why not blue or green?

stinson6016 · May 9, 2009

what the color he's typing in? blue is my favorite color, but I am wearing a bright orange shirt so I like the orange color he typed it

I changed a few things to make it look nicer and it easier to read.

Thanks for this man, it looks a lot better! And i didnt attach the files to this post because i visit many forums and the ones i usually go to mostly have rules aginst the attachment system unless it is needed. Anyways im glad people find it useful and not stupid!

EDIT: Just realized but this rewrite kinda defeats my purpose, i was trying to make it so you only had to type in a variable quick to get a color. In this rewrite you would have to call the array and blah blah blah.

Its the same thing. only instead of a variable, its a String. and 'ByName' is added to the color function. its not that much...

To make you both happy, you could add this after the array declaration in billthecreator's version:

For $C = 0 To UBound($ColorList)-1
    Assign($ColorList[$c][0], $ColorList[$c][1])
Next
;Msgbox(0, "", "LemonChiifon is: " & @crlf & $lemonChiffon & @Crlf & "0x" & Hex($lemonChiffon))

Great , thx for this code

NassauSky · November 25, 2017

Any chance I can see this in action. I'm still a little lost how or when to call it to get a color list. @insignia96 site is down and his example code is not available anymore. I also see @ResNullius added some code himself to help out but not sure where he added that so if someone has the final version and a sample call from a gui on how it operates will do wonders to understand it more.

Thanks.

Thanks @KaFu I created a new gui inside the colorlist.au3 and didn't notice it was already declaring a window.

That was the easy part. I just wasn't sure what @billthecreator was doing and i figured it out. He meant to add his code if you want to use colorlist.au3 as an include file and with his code you can use the variable names setup in colorlist file in your own program.

I marked it up a little. Here is the full code for anyone who is not firing on all cylinders at some time like me today:

For $C = 0 To UBound($ColorList)-1
