#include <xsi_color.h>


Class Description

This struct represents an RGBA color.

The RBGA component values are stored as double precision numbers.

CColor objects are created from OGLLight and OGLMaterial objects.

Note:
If a component value is greater than a signed, single-precision value, the component value is interpreted as a negative value.

In most cases, the component values are normalized to the range 0 to 1. TrianglePoint::GetColor is an exception, and returns values in the range 0 to 255.

Other XSI objects and properties store colors differently:

  • Shaders and XSI objects have separate Parameter objects for each color component (for example, Scene_Material.Phong.diffuse.green). These component values are normalized and use double precision.
  • Wireframe colors are encoded as 10-bit values (0 to 1023), with the least significant bit ignored. Each of the R,G,B channels is 3 bits (a number from 0 to 7), and the wireframe color is encoded as:
     B2|B1|B0|G2|G1|G0|R2|R1|R0|0|

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CColor ( ) [inline]

Constructs a CColor object.

CColor ( const CColor in_color ) [inline]

Constructs a new CColor object from an existing CColor object.

Parameters:
in_color An existing CColor object to copy into this CColor object.
CColor ( double  in_rc,
double  in_gc,
double  in_bc,
double  in_ac 
) [inline]

Constructs a new CColor object from RGBA values.

Parameters:
in_rc Red component value.
in_gc Green component value.
in_bc Blue component value.
in_ac Alpha component value.

Member Function Documentation

bool operator== ( const CColor in_color ) const [inline]

Tests whether two CColor objects are equal.

Parameters:
in_color CColor to compare with this CColor object.
Returns:
True if the colors are equal, and false otherwise.
bool operator!= ( const CColor in_color ) const [inline]

Tests whether two CColor objects are different.

Parameters:
in_color CColor to compare with this CColor object
Returns:
True if the colors are different, and false is they are the same.
