Color messages
Jul 20 2017 | 1:44 pm
Hey folks,
I have issues generating messages to dynamically change object colors (e.g. panels).
I used to drag the respective color row from the inspector to the patcher and ended up with a nice message including the RGB color values.
Since Max7 I get a attrui object which appears to be absolutely useless for these kinds of operations.
I tried working around with the getattr object couldn't get it to work with the bgfillcolor attribute of a panel.
Is there a secret functionality in the attrui system I just don't get?
My solution at the moment is having Max6 open in the background or a website which provides me RGB numbers to generate the messages when I do that kind of stuff...
Is there a quick and easy way to do this simple operation in Max7. Can I copy the RGB values of a selected color from somewhere else in the inspector?
best
