.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XQueryColor
|
|
function returns the current RGB value for the pixel in the
|
|
.ZN XColor
|
|
structure and sets the
|
|
.ZN DoRed ,
|
|
.ZN DoGreen ,
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN DoBlue
|
|
flags.
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XQueryColors
|
|
function returns the RGB value for each pixel in each
|
|
.ZN XColor
|
|
structure and sets the
|
|
.ZN DoRed ,
|
|
.ZN DoGreen ,
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN DoBlue
|
|
flags in each structure.
|

.LP
|
|
.ZN XQueryColor
|
|
and

|
.ZN XQueryColors

|
|
.ZN BadColor
|
|

|
.ZN BadValue

|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XLookupColor
|
|
function looks up the string name of a color with respect to the screen
|
|
associated with the specified colormap.
|
|
It returns both the exact color values and
|
|
the closest values provided by the screen
|
|
with respect to the visual type of the specified colormap.
|
|
If the color name is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding,
|
|
the result is implementation-dependent.
|
|
Use of uppercase or lowercase does not matter.
|
|
.ZN XLookupColor
|
|
returns nonzero if the name is resolved;
|
|
otherwise, it returns zero.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XParseColor
|
|
function looks up the string name of a color with respect to the screen
|
|
associated with the specified colormap.
|
|
It returns the exact color value.
|
|
If the color name is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding,
|
|
the result is implementation-dependent.
|
|
Use of uppercase or lowercase does not matter.
|
|
.ZN XParseColor
|

|
otherwise, it returns zero.
|
|
.LP
|

|
.SH "COLOR NAMES"
|
|
An RGB Device specification is identified by
|
|
the prefix ``rgb:'' and conforms to the following syntax:
|
|
.LP
|
|
.\" Start marker code here
|
|
.Ds 0
|
|
rgb:\fI<red>/<green>/<blue>\fP
|
|
|
|
\fI<red>\fP, \fI<green>\fP, \fI<blue>\fP := \fIh\fP | \fIhh\fP | \fIhhh\fP | \fIhhhh\fP
|
|
\fIh\fP := single hexadecimal digits (case insignificant)
|
|
.De
|
|
.\" End marker code here
|
|
.LP
|
|
Note that \fIh\fP indicates the value scaled in 4 bits,
|
|
\fIhh\fP the value scaled in 8 bits,
|
|
\fIhhh\fP the value scaled in 12 bits,
|
|
and \fIhhhh\fP the value scaled in 16 bits, respectively.
|
|
.LP
|
|
For backward compatibility, an older syntax for RGB Device is
|
|
supported, but its continued use is not encouraged.
|
|
The syntax is an initial sharp sign character followed by
|
|
a numeric specification, in one of the following formats:
|
|
.LP
|
|
.TS
|
|
l l.
|
|
\&#RGB (4 bits each)
|
|
\&#RRGGBB (8 bits each)
|
|
\&#RRRGGGBBB (12 bits each)
|
|
\&#RRRRGGGGBBBB (16 bits each)
|
|
.TE
|
|
.LP
|
|
The R, G, and B represent single hexadecimal digits.
|
|
When fewer than 16 bits each are specified,
|
|
they represent the most significant bits of the value
|
|
(unlike the ``rgb:'' syntax, in which values are scaled).
|
|
For example, the string ``#3a7'' is the same as ``#3000a0007000''.
|
|
.LP
|
|
An RGB intensity specification is identified
|
|
by the prefix ``rgbi:'' and conforms to the following syntax:
|
|
.LP
|
|
.\" Start marker code here
|
|
.Ds 0
|
|
rgbi:\fI<red>/<green>/<blue>\fP
|
|
.De
|
|
.\" End marker code here
|
|
.LP
|
|
Note that red, green, and blue are floating-point values
|
|
between 0.0 and 1.0, inclusive.
|
|
The input format for these values is an optional sign,
|
|
a string of numbers possibly containing a decimal point,
|
|
and an optional exponent field containing an E or e
|
|
followed by a possibly signed integer string.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The standard device-independent string specifications have
|
|
the following syntax:
|
|
.LP
|
|
.\" Start marker code here
|
|
.Ds 0
|
|
CIEXYZ:\fI<X>/<Y>/<Z>\fP
|
|
CIEuvY:\fI<u>/<v>/<Y>\fP
|
|
CIExyY:\fI<x>/<y>/<Y>\fP
|
|
CIELab:\fI<L>/<a>/<b>\fP
|
|
CIELuv:\fI<L>/<u>/<v>\fP
|
|
TekHVC:\fI<H>/<V>/<C>\fP
|
|
.De
|
|
.\" End marker code here
|
|
.LP
|
|
All of the values (C, H, V, X, Y, Z, a, b, u, v, y, x) are
|
|
floating-point values.
|
|
The syntax for these values is an optional plus or minus sign,
|
|
a string of digits possibly containing a decimal point,
|
|
and an optional exponent field consisting of an ``E'' or ``e''
|
|
followed by an optional plus or minus followed by a string of digits.
|
|
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadColor
|
|
A value for a Colormap argument does not name a defined Colormap.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadValue
|
|
Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
|
|
Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined
|
|
by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a set of
|
|
alternatives can generate this error.
