colorprogrammatically?
Seems to me you could add 10% to each of the RGB values by multiplying each
by 1.1, then round them up. (A roundUp function can be made by div'ing a
value by itself, then adding the mod of a value by itself and conditionally
adding 1 if the mod is not 0). That would give you the shade lighter.
Dividing the values by 1.1 would give you a shade darker. But that is just
me conjecturing off the top of my head.

Hi All,
I have a problem... If a user selects a color and I put it into a variable
(as RGB), how can I find a shade that is several shades lighter, and a
shade that is several shades darker, also in RGB format?
For example, I put 0,255,64 into myVar. (This color a shade of green.)
Programmatically, how can I find a shade that is several shades lighter in
green and a shade that is several shades darker in green from this base
color?
(By the way... Is there a way in LiveCode to determine the hue of a color
and change the value?)
Any help would be most appreciated...
Thanks!
