Colors simplier to read - Padarom - 28.04.2012

Hello everybody.
Usually a color is defined in that way:

pawn Код:

#define COLOR_RED 0xFF006600

This way the hex-code isn't that clear to read (FF0066). So I wanted to make it a little bit clearer:

pawn Код:

#define c(%1) 0x%100
#define COLOR_RED c(FF0066)

But now the color is black everytime. In my opinion it is because the code cuts the 0 (from the 0x in front). But I don't really know why. Is there a way to do this more easily or at least without the bug?

And yeah, I know it's pretty senseless, no need to mention that :P

Thanks in advance.

Define the color :

pawn Код:

#define COLOR_RED 0xFF006600

And Use in this function , only a example:

pawn Код:

SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_RED, "Message");

This is more easily.

Ermm - Yeah, that's the way I mentioned first. But I want to make the hex code easier to read. Even if it's increasing the line numbers (1 more line), the color would be easier to define or change - Due to the clear hex.

Just ignore if you think this is useless, but I still would love to have a solution for that.

#define COLOR_RED c(FF0066)

The macro is using %1. 0x %1 00 is what he actually has.

Re: Colors simplier to read - Niko_boy - 28.04.2012

ahhah yeah
didnt thought of that but the macro doesnt become 100 if he type like that loL?
%100 instead of %1 00
I guesss no ?

Well if I would use %1 00 (instead of %100) I would get errors when using the color:

pawn Код:

error 001: expected token: ",", but found "-integer value-"
warning 215: expression has no effect
warning 215: expression has no effect
error 001: expected token: ";", but found ")"
error 029: invalid expression, assumed zero
fatal error 107: too many error messages on one line

Re: Colors simplier to read - Niko_boy - 28.04.2012

#define AlPha 00
#define c(%1) 0x%1AlPha
#define COLOR_RED c(FF0066)
NO ?
i am doing it wrong anyways :P?

AW: Colors simplier to read - Padarom - 28.04.2012

Yeah MP2, that's the website I get my colors from. And why did you post it?
It doesn't have anything to do with my matter.

@Niko: Nope, it doesn't recognize the Alpha as a defined number (undefined symbol "xD10054Alpha")
