What am I missing with the color code? #524

Is it possible you could give a user friendly explanation of how to change the colors of the border and box fill in your mod? Your wiki is pretty much just a description of what the mod does, and doesn't really explain how to change anything. I have looked all over google, and found a few other people that have asked this, and you told them it is a "hexadecimal" color. However, when I type "hexadecimal color picker" into google, I get this: https://imgur.com/XiTLwrO

And when I choose a color from that picker, and copy the code into your config file, it doesnt work. The default values in your config file don't even seem to be the correct colors that I am seeing in the game. For example your default value of "ff999999" boxBorderColor comes up as Pink in the hexadecimal color picker. This is not the default color I see in the game. So something is off somewhere, and again, your wiki is pretty useless for explaining any of these things.

What color picker will give me actual values that I can use in your config?

Try 999999ff instead. Just to experiment if that helps

Boolyman commented 3 years ago

That did change the color to a light transparent purple.

Is there a color picker out there which will give us that format of output?

Boolyman commented 3 years ago

Any idea?

McJty commented 3 years ago

Not right now. I can check but not at this time

select your color and copy the text box under/in "HEX" then for transparency, search up a decimal to hexadecimal converter in google, and put a value in between 0-255 then append it to the color

??? I am aware of how it is supposed to work, and it is not. That's why I am here. The hexadecimal value, at least how it is shown on the color picker, is not working.

It's been over a month. Should I just assume this is not going to be addressed any time soon?

Sorry I've been very busy. But basically 999999ff would be gray. The alpha component is the last byte
