V5 Screen Drawing

[Sylvie]

Is there any way to use custom colors (either RGB or Hex codes) in VEXcode?

Yeah look at this thread I made. Jpearman gave a great answer.

Colors on V5 Brain

Lots of ways to create colors. int main() { // using one of the named colors Brain.Screen.setFillColor( red ); Brain.Screen.drawRectangle( 10, 10, 30, 40 ); // using web color Brain.Screen.setFillColor( "#008000" ); Brain.Screen.drawRectangle( 50, 10, 30, 40 ); // using hue Brain.Screen.setFillColor( 120.0 ); Brain.Screen.drawRectangle( 90, 10, 30, 40 ); // as color instance vex::color c = vex::color( 0, 30, 200 ); Brain.Screen.setF…

I have been using

 vex::color c = vex::color( 0, 30, 200 );
 Brain.Screen.setFillColor( c );
 Brain.Screen.drawRectangle( 130, 10, 30, 40 );

I think that uses something similar to rgb

Thanks! I couldn’t seem to find a good answer to that.

Also, is it possible to make a rectangle that is filled in as opposed to an outline?

Yeah you set the fill color with the brain

Brain.Screen.setFillColor()

put color in the parentheses
