Understanding colors #60

Closed Jacques-Olivier-Farcy closed 4 years ago

Jacques-Olivier-Farcy commented 5 years ago

Hello,

I am using ALC_freeliner quite a lot these days and i really enjoy creating stuff with it.

I have tested a lot of things with the WEB GUI or directly with keyboard. I also look into the pde files.

But i can't undestand how to use my own colors. I also wants to add effects like the millsfade one with my own colors.

I would really appreciate if you can help me on that.

I will continue to fill out the wiki pages as soon as I understand this color story.

Hi I also dont really understand colors, im colorblind! If you use the stroke or fill color dialog in the web interface, make sure to also set the stroke or fill mode for the template to CustomColor. You can also send commands yourself tp stroke A #de2ac2 or in OSC /tp/stroke/A/#de2ac2.

There is also a system to make complex color animations, but has to do with meta freelining.

Hello Maxdee,

Well i am not colorblind ! It should be easier for me, but i still can't have my own colors working for my template.

I am actually on Windows 10 ( my debian computer is not powerful enough). I tried this : image

But the color to fill the geometry renderer stay black. Maybe a bug ?

And i also tried to send a cmd with the web interface :

And nothing is happening.

Hello sorry for the delay. Did you set the strokeMode for A to 28 also know as CustomStrokeColor?
