color help in turing

[SteveO]

can some one tell me all the color codes for turing thx a lot

[.hack]

Color codes for what?

Text, background,lines,dashed lines? there are tons!

(I think it uses RGB, but as far as the coding to enable colored text, no clue.)

[TheXploder]

here is a program that views them all:

code:

for i : 1 .. 255     colourback (i)     put "Colour ", i end for

[shorthair]

you will find taht in turing uless your a perfectionist , that anything over 60 is not needed , or even lower mabye , the grayscale is pretty cool though , becuase you can do fade outs which make titles look real good

[Cervantes]

sorry xploder but your program is insufficient
just doing that makes it hard to know what colour to use if you want to use it as a background colour. that's why I made this.

code:

var win_start : int var TYPE : string (1) var col : int := 1 win_start := Window.Open ("position:top;left,graphics:300;100") put "Enter type of style to view colours" put "(background / b or writing / w) : " .. getch (TYPE) Window.Close (win_start) if TYPE = "b" or TYPE = "B" then     var win_back : int := Window.Open ("position:top;left,graphics:max;4120,title:Background")     for i : 0 .. 255         colourback (i)         put " Hello ", i     end for elsif TYPE = "w" or TYPE = "W" then     var win_write : int := Window.Open ("position:top;left,graphics:max;4120,title:Writing")     for ib : 0 .. 255         colourback (0)         colour (ib)         put " HELLO EVERYBODY!!!  MORE CHARACTERS WAHOO!!!!!!", ib     end for end if

[shorthair]

thats a good one , but im sure htere is a RGB color chart around somewhere on the net , that shows the number and the color

[.hack]

I fyou have a proggy liek Photoshop when u choose a color, a palette comes up where ther eis every shade possible under the sun, jsut look at wat color u want and grab the RGB code which it gives.

[Delos]

This is all well and good, being able to identify 'every single colour under the sun' (with the mathamatical limitations of RGB of course!), but let's not lose sight of the fact that Turing can only support up to 1024 colours at a time...so, your pictures wouldn't really have all of the afore mentioned colours.

[recneps]

Basicly, when starting out, use 16 colours ("graphics:v16") and they are listed on first page of Turing Help i believe. And please make topics title's specific. not "Help with Turing."

With that you won't be able to scroll up to see.
Cervantes, how did you get yours to scroll?

[recneps]

(im gonna lose bits for this, but it needs to be said)Guys, when someone asks a simple question, why do you all need to make mini programs, then the other tries to out do the last one, and it repeats until there are 50 diff programs, and the person who asks the question really didnt get it answered!

[Cervantes]

actually spencer Xploder answered his question at the very beginning. The thread can go off on any direction now and his question is still answered. If SteveO doesn't understand he can ask for clarification.

Well Paul, if you notice in my program the

code:

("position:top;left,graphics:max;4120,title:Background")

now lets zoom in some more.

code:

graphics:max;4120

now zoom in slightly more

code:

4120

your not losing bit for this. In fact, it's probably better for people to try to out do each other by coming up with better programs. that's how I made my snow thingie, it was a s spur of the moment thing. And if someone made a cool program, or had a cool technique to solving some type of problem, I would award bits.

But as you probably brought up, do answer the question first before you compete, it's only polite to answer someone's question before you go and do something else on your own.

lol i remember that guy asked for the rain program... juss melt the snow
