wc3 color codes --> RGB?

[kentzeus]

Hi, I've been searching around but I cannot find what I'm looking for. I have color codes in tooltips (for example |cff00c850) that I want to make RGB to use in floating text, how can I do this?

|c indicates that a hexadecimal color code is about to start. The first two characters define the alpha amount, though alpha is not yet supported by Warcraft - just leave it as FF. The rest defines the Red, Green, and Blue colors, respectively.

So, to convert Hex code to RGB, you can use third-party softwares, like image editors (photoshop), or even sites like this one. Don't forget to exclude the first 4 characters from Warcraft 3's hex code. E.g. |cff00c850 --> 00c850 --> rgb(0,200,80)

If you just leave all 3 colors at 100% you can still use |cff00c850 in the created floating text.

HTML Color Picker
This simple tool will allow you to pick a color from a visual color palette and get to know the hex code for that color. It's entirely web-based, so you don't need to install any software or whatever. I think that makes it quite accessible.

Set the colour of the floating text using the appropriate function...

native SetTextTagColor takes texttag t,integer red,integer green,integer blue,integer alpha returns nothing

Or use the GUI adapter action to the function.
