Color Syntax

Colors are specified by name as they appear in the color palettes. The names must be enclosed in double quotes. For example, "Ocean Green."

Alternatively, a color is specified using the special syntax:

"Rxxx Gyyy Bzzz"

or

"Rxxx Gyyy Bzzz Aaaa"

where xxx, yyy, and zzz specify a red, green, and blue color component and aaa specifies the opacity value, respectively. Each component can range from 0 to 255.

Example

"R0 G0 B0"

All components are 0, resulting in black

"R0 G255 B0"

Pure green

"R255 G255 B255"

All components are at full intensity, resulting in bright white.

"R255 G255 B255 A45"

All components are at full intensity, resulting in bright white. Opacity is set to 18%.
