Color

An RGBA representation of a color. Color components have an effective range of [0.0, 1.0], but values greater than 1 may be used.

Constructors

Constructor Name	Return Type	Description	Tags
`Color.New()`	`Color`	Constructs a new Color.	None
`Color.New(number r, number g, number b, [number a])`	`Color`	Constructs a Color with the given values, alpha defaults to 1.0.	None
`Color.New(Vector3 v)`	`Color`	Constructs a Color using the vector's XYZ components as the color's RGB components, alpha defaults to 1.0.	None
`Color.New(Vector4 v)`	`Color`	Constructs a Color using the vector's XYZW components as the color's RGBA components.	None
`Color.New(Color c)`	`Color`	Makes a copy of the given color.	None

Properties

Property Name	Return Type	Description	Tags
`r`	`number`	The Red component of the Color.	Read-Write
`g`	`number`	The Green component of the Color.	Read-Write
`b`	`number`	The Blue component of the Color.	Read-Write
`a`	`number`	The Alpha (transparency) component of the Color.	Read-Write

Functions

Function Name	Return Type	Description	Tags
`GetDesaturated(number desaturation)`	`Color`	Returns the desaturated version of the Color. 0 represents no desaturation and 1 represents full desaturation.	None
`ToStandardHex()`	`string`	Returns a hexadecimal sRGB representation of this color, in the format "#RRGGBBAA". Channel values outside the normal 0-1 range will be clamped, and some precision may be lost.	None
`ToLinearHex()`	`string`	Returns a hexadecimal linear RGB representation of this color, in the format "#RRGGBBAA". Channel values outside the normal 0-1 range will be clamped, and some precision may be lost.	None

Class Functions

Class Function Name	Return Type	Description	Tags
`Color.Lerp(Color from, Color to, number progress)`	`Color`	Linearly interpolates between two colors in HSV space by the specified progress amount and returns the resultant Color.	None
`Color.Random()`	`Color`	Returns a new color with random RGB values and Alpha of 1.0.	None
`Color.FromStandardHex(string hexString)`	`Color`	Creates a Color from the given sRGB hexadecimal string. Supported formats include "#RGB", "#RGBA", "#RRGGBB", and "#RRGGBBAA", with or without the leading "#".	None
`Color.FromLinearHex(string hexString)`	`Color`	Creates a Color from the given linear RGB hexadecimal string. Supported formats include "#RGB", "#RGBA", "#RRGGBB", and "#RRGGBBAA", with or without the leading "#".	None

Operators

Operator Name	Return Type	Description	Tags
`Color + Color`	`Color`	Component-wise addition.	None

`Color * Color`	`Color`	Component-wise multiplication.	None
`Color * number`	`Color`	Multiplies each component of the Color by the right-side number.	None
`Color / Color`	`Color`	Component-wise division.	None
`Color / number`	`Color`	Divides each component of the Color by the right-side number.	None

Examples

Example using:

`Lerp`

This utility function calculates a color useful for a health bar.

function GetHitPointsColor(currentHitPoints, maxHitPoints)
    -- 3 point gradient color, from red to yellow then green
    local percent = 1

    if maxHitPoints > 0 then
        percent = currentHitPoints / maxHitPoints
        percent = CoreMath.Clamp(percent, 0, 1)
    end

    local c

    if percent < 0.5 then
        c = Color.Lerp(Color.RED, Color.YELLOW, percent * 2)
    else
        c = Color.Lerp(Color.YELLOW, Color.GREEN, percent * 2 - 1)
    end

    return c
end
