color

Read access to the color of a data object. Read/write access to the color of the current formula.

Syntax

DataObject.color

or

Data.color

or

this.color = Color

or

Data.color = Color

The syntax of the color property consists of the following elements:

Element

Description

DataObject

The data object being accessed. Use this to access the current formula.

Data

A flexpro.Data object to which header information of the data object from which it originates is assigned.

Color

A 32-bit integer value that defines the RGB color value.

With the integer values R (red), G (green) and B (blue) in the range from 0 to 255, the RGB color value is calculated as follows: R + (G << 8) + (B << 16).

The value -1 corresponds to "no color".

Remarks

Write access to the header information of a data object is only permitted for the formula in which the Python code is located. Instead of using write access, you should preferably edit the attribute on the General tab of the Properties dialog box.

Available In

FlexPro Professional, Developer Suite

Examples

flexpro.object(r'\DataSet').color

Returns a 32-bit integer value that represents the color of a data set in the root folder.

this.color = 0x0000ff

Assigns the color 100% red to the current formula.
