Color Fuchsia in Java April 23, 2015 4:03AM UTC
Fernando Silva Fernandes 10 Posts	In Java, defining x as an object: x=Color.FUCHSIA gives an error. How can such color be defined in Java? Thanks, Fernando Fernandes Login to reply

Francisco Esquembre 237 Posts	Hi, Try Color.MAGENTA. Another solution, which applies to all colors is this: Color myFuchsia = new Color(255, 0, 255); // Where the values of the Color(int r, int g, int b) constructor are the red, green and blue components of the color. These values are integers from 0 (no component) to 255 (full component). Paco Login to reply \| Condense

Hi, Paco

Color.MAGENTA is OK. However, I want to define different shades of a color.

Color myFuchsia = new Color(255, 0, 255) at Initialization, followed by (x is an object):

x = Color.myFuchsia, gives compilation error

x ="myFuchsia", compilation OK, but gives red color.

I am certainly missing some point.
