If you have a list of known colors with names, you can see which of those known colors a given target color is ‘closest’ to, using a ‘closeness’ function along the lines of (F# code): let Diff (c1:Color) (c2:Color) = let dr = (c1.R – c2.R) |> int let dg = (c1.G – c2.G) |> … Read more
Here are the console color hex values, as converted by .NET 4.5. First the program: using System; using System.Drawing; class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { foreach (var n in Enum.GetNames(typeof(ConsoleColor))) Console.WriteLine(“{0,-12} #{1:X6}”, n, Color.FromName(n).ToArgb() & 0xFFFFFF); } } And here’s the output. As you can see, there’s a problem with the reporting for … Read more
First, you ask for linear interpolation but you don’t specify that color B lives on the line between color A and color C; this is necessary. Second, you didn’t specify but I am going to make a simplifying assumption that color B is the midpoint of the line between color A and color C; the … Read more
I’m failing to see the problem here. The code looks good to me. The only thing I can think of is that the try/catch blocks are redundant — Color is a struct and R, G, and B are bytes, so c can’t be null and c.R.ToString(), c.G.ToString(), and c.B.ToString() can’t actually fail (the only way … Read more
It depends on what do you mean by “inverting” a color Your code provides a “negative” color. Are you looking for transform red in cyan, green in purple, blue in yellow (and so on) ? If so, you need to convert your RGB color in HSV mode (you will find here to make the transformation). … Read more
