Cannot compare two colors.

[zolysoftsolutions]

Hi my friends.
I have a simple question.
How you solve the problem to compare backcolor of two labels?

by example the following code will return argument error:

if this.backcolor=main.colorsample.backcolor
msginfo('You found it.')
else
msginfo('Does not match.')
endif

this also not work: if this.backcolor={255,255,0} ..argument error too.

If I'm using == operator (compare arrays) will not result error but the result is wrong:
Example:

setproperty('topping',buton,'backcolor',{128,255,128})
if getproperty('topping',buton,'backcolor')=={128,255,128}
msginfo('Yes the color is matching')
else
msginfo('False')
endif
WILL RETURN FALSE!

Thank you.
Best regards,

Zoli,

Try this:

Code: Select all

FOR A = 1 TO LEN(aColors)
   IF	VAL(aColors [a] [2]) == zCOLOR [1] .AND. VAL(aColors [a] [3]) == zCOLOR [2] .AND. VAL(aColors [a] [4]) == zCOLOR [3]
      // found
      EXIT
   ENDIF
NEXT

Hi Serge,

Thank you very much for your quick answer.
Unfortunatelly your code, as is, does not work in my case, but YOUR ideea to split the array on elements SOLVED the problem.

function comparrays(acolors,zColor)
IF aColors[1]==zColor[1] .AND. aColors[2]==zColor[2] .AND. aColors[3]==zColor[3]
return .t.
ELSE
return .f.
ENDIF
return

Thank you again.
