SYNOPSIS
coloredit

AVAILABILITY

Available only on Sun 386i systems running a SunOS 4.0.x release or earlier. Not a SunOS 4.1 release feature.

DESCRIPTION

coloredit is a SunView application for altering the colors of objects (windows) selected with the cursor. These colors may be manipulated in three ways:

•   select color name from a list

•   specify the hue/saturation/value for a color

•   specify the red/green/blue levels for a color

USAGE

  Window
The coloredit window consists of four sections.

colorlist
    An interactive window that lists the available colors for selection. This list can be scrolled up and down with a scrollbar, and comprises the contents of the .rgb file. Select a color and the corresponding RGB and HSV value appears in the colorbar section. coloredit first searches the working directory for .rgb, your home directory, and finally, /usr/lib this file.

colorbars
    An interactive window with two sets of three sliding bars. One set is for defining the hue saturation value of the color desired. The second set is for defining the red-green-blue ratios. The color can be specified using either set of sliding bars.

palette
    A display subwindow divided horizontally into two equal parts. The top part shows the background color; the bottom, the foreground color. If the object has more than 2 colors, all the colors are shown. The background color is color Index #0. The color with the highest Index Number is the foreground color.

logo
    A display subwindow containing the Sun logo in the currently-selected color.

  Command Buttons

The set of command buttons in the colorbars subwindow is as follows.

Grab
    The next object selected will have its color map segment colors displayed in the coloredit window. These colors may then be manipulated.

Release
    Disassociates the colormap segment and the last object with which those colors were associated. The window returns to its default state.

Undo
    Returns the colormap segment to the original colors that the object being colored had when coloring began. Returns the object to its original colors.
