pymel.core.general.colorIndex

colorIndex(*args, **kwargs)

The index specifies a color index in the color palette. The r, g, and b values (between 0-1) specify the RGB values (or the HSV values if the -hsv flag is used) for the color.

Flags:

Long name (short name)		Argument Types	Properties
hueSaturationValue (hsv)		bool
	Indicates that rgb values are really hsv values. Upon query, returns the HSV valuses as an array of 3 floats.Flag can appear in Create mode of commandFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
resetToFactory (rf)		bool
	Resets all color index palette entries to their factory defaults.
resetToSaved (rs)		bool
	Resets all color palette entries to their saved values.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.colorIndex

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

import maya.cmds as cmds

# Set the first entry in the color palette to have RGB values 1 0 0 - red.
pm.colorIndex( 1, 1, 0, 0 )
# Result: 1 #

# Set the first entry in the color palette to have HSV values 360 1 1 - red.
pm.colorIndex( 1, 360, 0, 0, hsv=True )
# Result: 1 #

# Return the RGB color values of the first entry of the color palette.
pm.colorIndex( 1, q=True )
# Result: [0.0, 0.0, 0.0] #

# Return the HSV color values of the first entry of the color palette.
pm.colorIndex( 1, q=True, hsv=True )
# Result: [0.0, 0.0, 0.0] #
