coloredit - alter color map segment

SYNOPSIS

coloredit

AVAILABILITY

Available only on Sun 386i systems running a SunOS 4.0.x release or earlier. Not a SunOS 4.1 release feature.

DESCRIPTION

coloredit is a SunView application for altering the colors of objects (windows) selected with the cursor. These colors may be manipulated in three ways:

select color name from a list
specify the hue/saturation/value for a color
specify the red/green/blue levels for a color

USAGE

Window

The coloredit window consists of four sections.

colorlist: An interactive window that lists the available colors for selection. This list can be scrolled up and down with a scrollbar, and comprises the contents of the .rgb file. Select a color and the corresponding RGB and HSV value appears in the colorbar section. coloredit first searches the working directory for .rgb, your home directory, and finally, /usr/lib this file.
colorbars: An interactive window with two sets of three sliding bars. One set is for defining the hue saturation value of the color desired. The second set is for defining the red-green-blue ratios. The color can be specified using either set of sliding bars.
palette: A display subwindow divided horizontally into two equal parts. The top part shows the background color; the bottom, the foreground color. If the object has more than 2 colors, all the colors are shown. The background color is color Index #0. The color with the highest Index Number is the foreground color.
logo: A display subwindow containing the Sun logo in the currently-selected color.

Command Buttons

The set of command buttons in the colorbars subwindow is as follows.

Grab: The next object selected will have its color map segment colors displayed in the coloredit window. These colors may then be manipulated.
Release: Disassociates the colormap segment and the last object with which those colors were associated. The window returns to its default state.
Undo: Returns the colormap segment to the original colors that the object being colored had when coloring began. Returns the object to its original colors.
