Is there a way to control the color output of a bang by script or by a max object?

scripted-bang-color-control

a bang doesn't have a colour (or even a sound), it is just a control message

but, you can change the colour of a button that receives a bang if that's what you mean

it's in the inspector


I got that, but can you automatically change the colour of the bang button. Via a scricpt or other?

sure, have a look at the [thispatcher] help file

it has an introduction to scripting there

Thanks! Found a lot but nothing specific for bang. I'll continue my search in the help file ether way. Maybe I can create a similar thing.

That's exactly what I need!!! Thank's so much!

Question : The jit.noise makes the 3 random color options. I'm trying to create a color based on a certain output.

So the jit.noise determines which of the three $ generated. How could I say that I want $1 to be blue, $2 to be red, etc.. for example?

I'm not totally sure what you are looking for, but you can set the color to whatever you want, and then bang the button to see it:

I have everything I need to know to continue with my patch!

Hmm, the colors aren't equal to the RGB color code?

I get only a limited amount of option in color?

Each value can be set by a 0.-1. float number. If you need to receive the values in some other format (0-255 for example) just do some conversion beforehand to scale the values:

And if I want to have the three 255 - 255 - 255? Or 155 - 200 - 21 for example.

I did it like this, but ofcourse a message can't understand that it has to be 3 different data inputs? And it registers is as the same..

You will need to pack all the values into a list, the $1 looks at the first item of the list, the $2 the second, the $3 the third, etc. So something like this would work:
