I would like to know the correct way to get a specific color for my texts. I can easily identify the RGB of each color but by putting those numbers in my code Corona SDK does not show me the correct color. Is there any way I can get the right RGB for Corona SDK?
The color I want:
*IMG 1 -
105, 255, 0 - from the Photoshop RGB
The color shown by Corona Simulator:
*IMG 2 -
252, 252, 19 - from the Photoshop RGB
In short, if I look for an RGB color in Photoshop and I put it in my code Corona SDK shows me another color.
Thanks in advance
To use setFillColor, you pass values between 0 and 1. If you have the RGB colors, you can set it like this (using your example above):
myImage:setFillColor(252/255, 252/255, 19/255)
–john
Show us your code.
I suspect you’re doing this:
obj:setFillColor(105, 255, 0)
when this is correct:
obj:setFillColor(0.41, 1, 0)
Note too, in the future please use a meaningful post title.
Calling the post “newbie question” in the newbie forums is redundant and doesn’t help future readers with a similar question find the post.
