Detailed Description

Represents a color based on RGBA (red, green, blue, alpha).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Color() [1/4]

constexpr luciad::Color::Color ( )

inlineconstexpr

Creates a default (transparent black) Color.

Color() [2/4]

constexpr luciad::Color::Color ( uint8_t  r, uint8_t  g, uint8_t  b, uint8_t  a = 255  )

inlineconstexpr

Creates a new color with the given value for red, green, blue and alpha (transparency).

Parameters

r	the red component of the color
g	the green component of the color
b	the blue component of the color
a	the alpha component of the color. For example: 255 is fully opaque, 0 is fully transparent. The default value is 255.

Color() [3/4]

luciad::Color::Color

Creates a new color based on the given hex string.

Parameters

hexString

a hex string representing a color, for example "#ff0000" for red, or "#00ff0088" for semi-transparent green.

Color() [4/4]

luciad::Color::Color

(

const char *

hexString

)

Creates a new color based on the given hex string.

Parameters

hexString

a hex string representing a color, for example "#ff0000" for red, or "#00ff0088" for semi-transparent green.

Member Function Documentation

a()

uint8_t luciad::Color::a ( ) const

inline

The alpha (transparency) component of the color.

Returns

the alpha (transparency) component of the color.

asDoubles()

std::array< double, 4 > luciad::Color::asDoubles

(

)

const

Returns this Color as a doubles array containing values {r, g, b, a}.

These are double values between [0, 1].

Returns

this Color as a doubles array containing values {r, g, b, a}. These are double values between [0, 1].

Since

2020.1

b()

uint8_t luciad::Color::b ( ) const

inline

The blue component of the color.

Returns

the blue component of the color.
