Michael, Here is a function that I use to lighten a color. You could modify this to get a darker color as well. Hope it helps.
function lightenColor origColor try repeat with i = 1 to 3 add 50 to item i of origColor if item i of origColor > 255 then put 255 into item i of origColor if item i of origColor < 0 then put 0 into item i of origColor end repeat return origColor catch tSomeErr return origColor end try end lightenColor -Dan > Hi there > > Lets say I have a color a,b,c > > Now I want the same color but fx 10% darker and 10 % lighter. > > (As if you in the colorwheel palette dragged the scrollbar-thumb a little > down and a little up) > > How could one script this? > > Thanks > Michael _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
