How do I translate colors from GuiSliderCtrl to GuiSwatchCtrl color and from GuiSwatchCtrl to the form that color sets use? |
| Port:
guiSwatchCtrl uses RGBA colors (red green blue alpha) in range 0 to 255. I've seen some colorsets that use that same range, however most (including default) seem to use range 0 to 1 (floating point). The conversion method is value / 255. I'll research guiSliderCtrl in a moment. guiSliderCtrl is not specifically for colors, you can use it for any type of value. In any case, it's as simple as setting the 'range' member field to '0 255' if you want it to use the same format that guiSwatchCtrl uses. |

EDIT: Should I just change the snap to 255 (even though it just looks like one black line after that) and ignore the numbers after the point? |
