    axlCustomColorObject arguments Reply
    Hi,

    What does [g_custom_color] argument means in axlCustomColorObject and how can I find this number for a particular color?

    Is there any limit<size> for this argument?

    Hi Pawan,

    Read the documentation for axlColorSet and axlColorGet. I think the current limit is 192.

    Hi Dave,

    Thanks.

    Is there any function to set the color for a dbid by passing directly RGB value (eg 255 255 255) instead of using index of color palette?

    Hi Pawan

    I've not been able to find such a method.

    What I've found is that you set the color palette indexes and can then use axlColorSet to set indexes using RGB values

    Only exception seems to be background color which can be set individually using rgb values.

    regards

    Ole

    Best regards Ole

    Hi,

    I raised a CCR 1074136 (Setting color on dbid's based on RGB value) for the same if someone else also wish to follow up on the same.

    Thanks,

    Pawan
