Create New Color

I am programming a System where I need to use many different shades of colors. Actually many shades of a 2 or 3 main colors (like red blue and green)
The Colors Java has provided is not enough for for this purpose.
I need to create many different shads blue and so on
Is it possible to use RGB or some format like that where you can create your own colors.
Any help would be greately appreciated ..
Thanks.

Either I don't understand the question or you haven't read the API.
The Color class has constructors that allow you to specify RGB values when creating a Color object.

  • How can I create a new color in the calendar?

    Good day,
    I wanted the to create a new color in the default calendar from Apple, but I do not know how that goes.
    Perhaps someone can explain to me how this works.
    I would be very grateful for any advice.

    If you mean you want to change a color of a calendar category or create a new one, you cannot do that, what is pre-loaded is what you get and cannot be edited.

  • InDesign CC swatch palette issues when creating a new color or updating a current color...

    InDesign CC has crashed on me three times in a row and still won't fix it's problem...EVEN AFTER my computer and all the programs were shut down overnight! I was in the swatch palette to create a new swatch. I had a current one selected to base the new one off of. I went under "create new swatch," the palette came up, my mouse auto-scrolled when I clicked and it landed on "DIC color." Now, the DIC fields won't disappear even when I'm in CMYK or RGB. And when I try to change it to CMYK or RGB or the color values, it crashes InDesign. When I load it back up, the problem still exists. How do I reset it???

    THANK YOU! It worked exactly for what I needed it to fix. I have been out of the Graphic Design game for a couple years and forgot a lot of quick fixes. I really appreciate it!

    In Dreamweaver 6, I created a new fluid layout. I set up (4) DIVs. In the 3rd div, I changed the font color. The new color shows up on the website when viewed in my computer desktop, but, when viewed in a tablet and a cell phone, the color of the font does not change. It's the same in Dreamweaver's Live view. It shows the new color on Desktop view and not in the cell phone or tablet view. Also, I changed the font itself in one of the DIVs and it shows up in the new font on the desktop view and website viewed thru the computer, but, not on the tablet or cell phone. Can someone please explain. I want to be able to change the fonts and colors for viewing in the tablet and cell phone, also. The fonts were all standard fonts. Sans-erif and Verdana and Arial were tried. Thanks.

    I will lock this discussion because of duplicate post.

  • Is there any way to create new decorations in LabVIEW 7.1?

    I've been reading the discussion threads, and now have a pretty good idea about how to programmatically manipulate the color and visibility of LabVIEW decorations.  The available decorations, however, are fairly limited.  Is there any way to create custom decorations?

    You can't create new decorations, but you can import vectoric images (from Office, for example) and use them as decorations (although you can't control their color).
    See here for some examples.

  • Bug: Create New Document From Current State (Win 7 HomePremium SP1)

    1. Open a new document, any size you want, any bit mode you want
    2. Click on the Text tool and write something
    3. Add a new layer mask do the text layer and fill it black or something else. Just something you can visualize if you'd took it off.
    4. Unblock the layer mask from the layer so you can move tha layer mask separate from the text
    5. Go to your history pannel and click "Create new document from current state"
    Result: You'll notice that the layer mask is gone from your text, even though it had something in it.
    This only seems to happen with text layers
    Expected Result: Everything should stay exactly the same, as it's a duplicate from the current state.

  • How to create new docs with custom swatch palette?

    Looking to create new documents with a corporate color palette already available instead of having to load the .ase files. Fat chance?

    Thanks Bob - I was trying that on a test MAC and it just was not sticking. A shutdown instead or a restart seemed to put things back in order and now all is good.

  • [JS][CS3] Create new swatch

    Hi all,
    I'm writing a script that reads an xml file and then converts the contents to InDesign Objects.
    Most of this I can do, but I'm having problems with the colors and swatches in InDesign.
    Simple said, what I'm trying to do is the following:
    1. Create a rectangle on my document
    2. Create a new Color Swatch with CMYK values
    3. Use the swatch for the rectangle's fillColor or strokeColor
    Using Javascript I can add new colors tot my document: myDoc.colors.add()
    But I can't use this color for the fillColor or strokeColor properties, it says they it needs to be a swatch, and not a color.
    Unfortunately, the method myDoc.swatches.add() doesn't exist, and I can't set a colorValue property to a swatch.
    Does anybody know how to do this? I'm guessing there's a simple solution for this, but I'm just not seeing it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Dany

    Hi Kasyan,
    Thanks very much for your reply.
    I breaked my head trying to find what was the difference between your code and mine, but now I see:
    Instead of using myDoc.colors, I used app.colors, which returns an error if you try to use that color for a rectangle, textframe, etc.
    Thanks !

  • How to create new nav buttons in nav bar

    I am trying to design a new site in iWeb. I want to add a row of navigation buttons to go to 8 different pages. All I have in the first page is a button called "welcome" and I cannot add anymore. It won't even let me select rollover colors or anything in that area.
    I only have a single page so far. If I add new pages does it automatically create new buttons in the nav bar, and how can I name them?
    Mike

    I cannot add anymore
    Yes you can. *New Page* from the file menu. Or *Add page* at the bottom left of the window.
    If I add new pages does it automatically create new buttons in the nav bar,
    Yes. (They're actually not buttons but textlinks)
    and how can I name them?
    By typing the characters of the pagename in the Sidebar on the left.

  • Creating spot color in Illustrator CS4 js

    Hi,
    I need to create spot color in Illustrator CS4 with js, with assigned name and color values. Here what I have:
    myColor = myDoc.spots.add({name:"FOIL", colorValue:[10, 0, 100, 0]});
    But it comes out as process instead of spot and the color is not assigned.
    Thank you for your help.
    Yulia

    the add function has no parameters, you have to add them after
    addSpot ('FOIL', 10, 0, 100, 0);
    function addSpot(name, c, m, y, k) {
        try {
            swatch = app.activeDocument.swatches[name]; // if swatch exists....
            addSpot (name+='1', c, m, y, k); // ...add 1 to swatch name
        catch (e) {
            var newSpot = app.activeDocument.spots.add();
            newSpot.name = name;
            var newColor = new CMYKColor();
            newColor.cyan = c;
            newColor.magenta = m;
            newColor.yellow = y;
            newColor.black = k;
            newSpot.colorType = ColorModel.SPOT;
            newSpot.color = newColor;
            var newSpotColor = new SpotColor();
            newSpotColor.spot = newSpot;

  • Illustrator CS4 New Color Swatches Keep Shifting Values

    Hi.  I really need some help.  I created 8 major panel designs for my first-ever tee shirts.  For this project, I added up to 70+ colors to my existing standard CMYK swatch library, by naming them and marking them for global.  Just to be on the safe side, I also made up my own directory in a separate document by making squares with their names next to them.  I transferred these to each new document I created.  I did all of this in Illustrator 10.
    I finally got to upgrade several months ago to the Design Suite CS4 -  Hooray!  No problem in converting my files.  I am having my tees printed in the direct-digital-to-fabric method.  My printer said that I could change all my CMYK colors to RGB for a more vibrant rendering.  And so I went in to each of my colors and manually changed them to RGB.  I also changed my document format to RGB.
    Several weeks ago, my eye registered that my favorite red didn't seem as red any more.  And so it wasn't!  I checked my swatch, and it was way off my original settings.  So I changed them.  The change didn't keep.  It turns out that almost all of my colors were off their original CMYK settings!
    So I started over again, by taking each color, and in most cases, making up a new color swatch with a slightly revised name.  I made sure the colors reflected accurately both the CMYK and the RGB percentages.  I DID NOT want to select as a spot color.  Therefore, I kept the "Process" format, but selected RGB.  I also deleted the old color swatch.
    But the problem was still there -- within a span of several minutes, my "Red" changed both in the CMYK and RGB percentages,  I checked 15 other colors I had just created, and their percentages were off also.
    Needless to say, it is very important to me that my colors hold their value.
    I thank you in advance for considering my challenge.

    Kelly,
    And so I went in to each of my colors and manually changed them to RGB.  I also changed my document format to RGB.
    Pick (almost) any colour in a document with CMYK Color Mode, copy into a document with RGB Color Mode, and see a change.
    In other words: if you want to keep the colours, keep the colour mode; if you want to change the colour mode, recreate the colours, and expect some differences.
    My printer said that I could change all my CMYK colors to RGB for a more vibrant rendering.
    Maybe your printer needs a vibrant rendering, with a boot.
    If the meaning was that the RGB colour gamut is larger, and therefore capable of more, and more vibrant, colours, which is true, that is what should have been said. It would imply creating new, fresh colours.

  • Create new document from current state not working

    Hey, everyone. I'm using Photoshop CS6 (ccloud) on Windows 7 and I just noticed something weird. Often when I'm working on an image that I want to duplicate, I'll click on the create new document from current state icon at the bottom of the history panel and a new image identical to it will open up as expected.
    Lately, though, every once in a while, when I click it, I'll get a new image that's not identical. It'll be a few states behind and I don't know why. It's never happened before and I'm not doing anything differently when it happens. I recently ran the CS6 update via ccloud, but I can't recall now if this started happening right before that or exclusively afterward.
    In case my issue's not clear, let's say I create a blank image, add a background color, add a layer of text, add a drop shadow to the text, then mask it. When I click the create new document from current state icon, instead of creating a new image that's a duplicate of that one, it will create new one where all that's there is the background color and text and all the other steps of adding a drop shadow and mask aren't there as if I hadn't done it yet.
    I make sure that I'm not clicking anywhere else in the history panel and like I said, this just happens at what seems like random times with random images. I've even tried saving an image, closing it, opening it again and immediately clicking that icon and it'll still create a new document that has missing states.
    Any idea what's going on?

    Yep, that existed in CS5 as well.
    We'll log a bug on it.

  • I hired a commercial artist to create a color image for the cover of a self published book. I want a black and white image for the inside. The commercial artist has not responded to this request. How do I determine the format of the color image, I'm guess

    I hired a commercial artist to create a color image for the cover of a self published book. I want a black and white image for the inside. The commercial artist has not responded to this request. How do I determine the format of the color image, I'm guessing it's Illustrator's formatting but I don't know. How can I find out if Illustrator will open the file and allow alterations? The image opens only in Apple's Pages software?

    rons,
    It seems that all you have is a raster image, presumable PNG24 or JPEG, in RGB.
    It may have been created as raster artwork in Photoshop, or it may have been created as vector artwork with the help of Illy, or as a mixture of vector and raster artwork in either application, or both combined.
    If you just need to have a raster representation in black and white based on the current colour image, you may try this, in a new RGB document (View>Smart Guides are your friends):
    1) File>Place the image (you may tick Link or untick and have it embedded);
    2) Create a rectangle with black fill (R = G = B = 0), at least as large as the image, and place it behind the image (you may ClickDrag with the Rectangle Tool between opposite corners, then Ctrl/Cmd+X+B);
    3) Select all and in the Transparnecy palette flyout click Make Opacity Mask with both Clip and Invert Mask ticked.

  • Can't Create New Sequence

    FCS2 Upgraded and updated yesterday.
    For some reason starting today I can't create new sequences. New Sequence doesn't make a new sequence in any of the bins (but doesn't crash - just nothing happens), whether from the File menu or right-clicking in a bin.
    Importing XML (from Color or even via Color > Send to FCP) doesn't create a sequence either.
    Creating a new project gives me an empty project, with no sequences in it either.
    Anyone?

    And, as always, FCP Rescue can make backing up or trashing your preferences nice and easy.

    Once you've got a functioning preference set, you can back it up to restore later in case this happens again.
