Any way to force the use of #-colors instead of named colors?

Reply Quote

Is there some (perhaps undocumented) way to have the color selection button to always generate numeric colors instead of named ones? E.g. the default/initial button color that is generated is 'red', -- can I force it to always/consistently be '#FF0000' instead?

Thanks.

Customizing the colors used in the editor?

The Colors Panel of Cute Editor by default displays a predefined set of colors. You can easily modify this default set by modifying the CuteEditorconstants.js file which can be found in the CuteSoft_Client/CuteEditor/ folder..

Customizing the color

By default all colors in the following color array will be used in the editor color panel.

var colorsArray = new Array("#000000","#993300","#333300","#003300","#003366","#000080","#333399","#333333",
   "#800000","#FF6600","#808000","#008000","#008080","#0000FF","#666699","#808080",
   "#FF0000","#FF9900","#99CC00","#339966","#33CCCC","#3366FF","#800080","#999999",
   "#FF00FF","#FFCC00","#FFFF00","#00FF00","#00FFFF","#00CCFF","#993366","#C0C0C0",
   "#FF99CC","#FFCC99","#FFFF99","#CCFFCC","#CCFFFF","#99CCFF","#CC99FF","#FFFFFF");

You can easily modify this default set by creating your own color array.

var colorsArray = new Array("#FF0000","#FF9900","#99CC00","#339966","#33CCCC","#3366FF","#800080","#999999",
"#FF00FF","#FFCC00","#FFFF00","#00FF00","#00FFFF","#00CCFF","#993366","#C0C0C0");

You can also disable the "more colors" option by set ShowMoreColors to false.

Thank you for the reply, however that wasn't my question...

I've narrowed it down a bit... hopefully this will help. When I click on the "color" button without using the drop-down to select a color (i.e. red by default), the style applied is 'red' (i.e. named color), not '#FF0000' (numeric). After I select the same red color from the dropdown, the style is '#FF0000'. Once the selection is made, the rest of the styles are "numeric"/RGB... It's just that very first time, it is the word 'red'.

Is that initial value configurable at all, or is it hard-coded somewhere inside the DLL? E.g. can I bring the control up with that button having some other color by default, instead of red?

Thanks again.
