color.toList converts a color in standard string form to a list of four numbers: red, green, blue, and alpha, all in the range 0-255.
See also: color.fromList
Arguments
| Parameter Name | Type | Default Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| colorString | string | null | string in standard color form |
Usage Notes
All methods and colors in the Mini Micro API, except this one, represent colors as hexadecimal strings, e.g. "#FF8080C8". However, sometimes it is convenient to represent a color as a list of numbers, so for example you can do math with them. In such cases, you can use color.toList to convert to list form, then later use color.fromList to convert back into standard color form.
Example
print color.toList(color.brown)
The above prints [153, 102, 51, 255], representing the color brown. The red value is 153, green is 102, blue is 51, and the alpha value is 255 (fully opaque).
