RGB(r; g; b)
and RGB(t)
calculate RGB colour values. If there are three arguments, r
, g
and b
, these must be numerical structures specifying the red, green and blue components of the colour (which must all be in the range 0-255). If there is a single argument, t
, this must be a text containing names of the standard Genstat colours. The text can contain the string ‘match
‘ in its second and subsequent units, to repeat the colour in the previous unit. It can also contain strings made up of three pairs of hexadecimal digits (00-FF) prefixed by #
, 0x
or 0X
: i.e. '#rgb'
, '0xrgb'
or '0Xrgb'
where rgb
are pairs of hexadecimal digits 00-FF that define the red, green and blue intensities of the colour respectively. For example, '#FF0000'
, '#00FF00'
and '#0000FF'
give pure red, green and blue respectively. The leading zeros can be dropped, so '#FF00'
and '#FF'
also define green and blue respectively.
