Can't change the font color - pdfclown
I discovered the font color doesn't work too well, regardless of whether it is blue, dark blue or light blue. They are still all the same color.
var FontArialRegularFilePath = #"C:\Windows\Fonts\Arial.ttf";
var fontArialRegular = pdfclownFonts::Font.Get(parmDocument, FontArialRegularFilePath);
var file = new File();
var primitiveComposer = new PrimitiveComposer(new Page(file.Document));
{
var blockComposer = new BlockComposer(primitiveComposer);
primitiveComposer.SetFont(fontArialRegular, 22 /*[Font-Size]*/);
primitiveComposer.SetFillColor(new DeviceRGBColor(double.Parse("0"), double.Parse("0"), double.Parse("49"))); //Dark Navy Blue...
blockComposer.Begin(new RectangleF(0f, 0f, 200f, 50f), XAlignmentEnum.Left, YAlignmentEnum.Top);
blockComposer.ShowText("Listing Price");
blockComposer.End();
}
The OP sets the color like this:
primitiveComposer.SetFillColor(new DeviceRGBColor(double.Parse("0"), double.Parse("0"), double.Parse("49"))); //Dark Navy Blue...
So he seems to assume that the color components are given in the range 0..255. This is not the case, though, the type double is used for a reason: the actual range is 0..1.
Thus, the OP most likely wanted
primitiveComposer.SetFillColor(new DeviceRGBColor(0.0, 0.0, 49.0/255.0)); //Dark Navy Blue...
As the OP considered the resulting color to be black, here different shades of pure blue created using new DeviceRGBColor(0.0, 0.0, Blue):
The originally proposed value 49.0/255.0 is nearly 0.2, i.e. a very dark blue.
I assume the OP knows that for certain blueish colors the red and green values are not 0.

Is there a way to modify alpha in a texture without affecting the RGB values?
I need to sample the RGBA values of a texture, and I'm using the alpha channel to store custom data, not really to as opacity. The problem is that as alpha approaches 0, my RGB values also get multiplied towards 0, but I need them to remain independent. My first render pass gets rendered into a WebGLRenderTarget, and this is how I'm storing data in GLSL into the alpha channel: gl_FragColor.rgb = mainColor; gl_FragColor.a = depthData; the result shows Alpha fading to white as expected: My second render pass gets rendered to the canvas, so I read the RGB values from from the first texture in GLSL, with alpha as 1: gl_FragColor.rgb = texture2D(tColor, vUv).rgb; gl_FragColor.a = 1.0; The result should be the regular RGB values of the spheres, but it seems that the RGB values fade to black when Alpha approaches 0. Is there a way to use the alpha channel as data storage without affecting the RGB values? I've tried setting the target texture's premultiplyAlpha = false as follows, but it doesn't change anything: var target = new THREE.WebGLRenderTarget( window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight, { format: THREE.RGBAFormat, type: THREE.UnsignedByteType }); target.texture.premultiplyAlpha = false; Update: I was building a working demo here, and I was unable to reproduce the bug. It looks like I'm going to have to rip apart my entire project until I get to the bottom of this...
iText 7 - How to fill a canvas rectangle with a transparent color
In iText 7.1.9 I am taking a pdf created programmatically (not via iText) and need to apply a transparent rectangle along the left side and bottom to ensure the no content exists within a predefined clear zone (for print). The below code places the yellow rectangles correctly but the desired result is the for the yellow fill to be semi-transparent or not 100% opaque so that visual inspection will show the content that that intersects with the rectangle instead of the rectangle clipping the content. var page = pdf.GetPage(1); PdfCanvas canvas = new PdfCanvas(page); canvas.SaveState(); canvas.SetFillColor(iText.Kernel.Colors.ColorConstants.YELLOW); var pageHeight = page.GetPageSize().GetHeight(); var pageWidth = page.GetPageSize().GetWidth(); // left side canvas.Rectangle(0, 0, 15, pageHeight); // bottom canvas.Rectangle(0, 0, pageWidth, 15); canvas.Fill(); canvas.RestoreState(); I attempted to use a TransparentColor but canvas.SetFillColor won't accept a TransparentColor, are there any other options?
When we speak about low-level content stream instructions, color itself and transparency levels are specified separately in PDF syntax. The TransparentColor class that you speak about was designed to simplify lives of users who are less familiar with nuances of PDF syntax, but it it a higher-level class that you can use e.g. in layout module, and in your case you operate with the document on quite low level. Long story short, to set color transparency you only need one additional line next to setting the color itself: canvas.SetExtGState(new PdfExtGState().SetFillOpacity(0.5f)); So the code becomes: var page = pdf.GetPage(1); PdfCanvas canvas = new PdfCanvas(page); canvas.SaveState(); canvas.SetFillColor(iText.Kernel.Colors.ColorConstants.YELLOW); canvas.SetExtGState(new PdfExtGState().SetFillOpacity(0.5f)); var pageHeight = page.GetPageSize().GetHeight(); var pageWidth = page.GetPageSize().GetWidth(); // left side canvas.Rectangle(0, 0, 15, pageHeight); // bottom canvas.Rectangle(0, 0, pageWidth, 15); canvas.Fill(); canvas.RestoreState();
NSBezierPath Stroke color is wrong
I want to draw a 1px wide border around my custom NSView in DrawRect with NSBezierPath: BorderColor.Set(); var path = NSBezierPath.FromRect(theRect); path.LineWidth = 1; path.Stroke(); Now BorderColor is set to NSColor.Gray, which I can see while debugging has an RGBA color code: (127,127,127,255) But the 1px wide border which appears on the screen gets this color: (194,194,194,255) When I set the path.LineWidth to 3, than I can see the 3 lines, the middle with wrong color (194..), the 2 wings with color (135,135,135,255) - which is close enough to the wanted (127..) color to be ok. When I use four piece of 1px wide rectangles for border instead, and Fill these 4 rects, I also get the (135..) color, which is ok again. I can use this rectangle based solution, I'm only wondering: Is there a way to achieve the correct color for a 1px wide border with NSBezierPath.Stroke?
Assuming you're setting the stroke color correctly (we don't see how BorderColor is set up) it might be the case that you're measuring the color value on screen, which - in particular for a thin line - might have been anti-aliased so you're not seeing the original color but the output of the anti-aliasing algorithm. Set the width to something bigger like 10 and measure the color in the middle of the 'blob' to make sure you're not chasing anti-aliasing artefacts..
Fonts created in Hiero can't set the color with new Color(r,g,b,a); - LIBGDX
I generated some fonts in Hiero. If I set the font color with : fontFPS.setColor(Color.YELLOW); the text color it is drawn correctly. But if I set it with Color fpsColor = new Color(74f, 112f, 139f, 160f); fontFPS.setColor(fpsColor); then I only get white color with no alpha. What is the problem?
First of all float values inside that method should be from 0f to 1f. So your color should be (values I put in constructor are calculated by dividing your original values with 255) Color fpsColor = new Color(0.29f, 0.43f, 0.54f, 0.66f); Also you should enable blending like this (I'm not sure if you already did that) Gdx.gl.glEnable(GL10.GL_BLEND); Gdx.gl.glBlendFunc(GL10.GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL10.GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA)
How can I use a gradient map to tone a HTML5 canvas with an image in the canvas.
I currently have a string, like the one displayed below, that I would like to tone an image with. I have searched Google in-access of 16 hours over the period of 2 weeks trying to figure out an answer. I can load an image into the canvas. This is what I am looking to do.

Good question! This isn't the kind of thing that's immediately obvious. But it is actually very simple provided you understand how to make grayscale images. So lets do that first: function grayscale() { var can = document.getElementById('canvas1'); var ctx = can.getContext('2d'); var imageData = ctx.getImageData(0,0,can.width, can.height); var pixels = imageData.data; var numPixels = pixels.length; ctx.clearRect(0, 0, can.width, can.height); for (var i = 0; i < numPixels; i++) { var average = (pixels[i*4] + pixels[i*4+1] + pixels[i*4+2]) /3; // set red green and blue pixels to the average value pixels[i*4] = average; pixels[i*4+1] = average; pixels[i*4+2] = average; } ctx.putImageData(imageData, 0, 0); } What this is doing is taking the average color of each pixel's Red, Green, and Blue, and setting the R, G, and B to that same average number. If the RGB values are all identical, that pixel will be gray (or black or white). But you want to tint it, thought, not just make the pixels gray. Well its not hard from here. You see those three lines: pixels[i*4] = average; pixels[i*4+1] = average; pixels[i*4+2] = average; Make them to something like: pixels[i*4] = average; pixels[i*4+1] = average + 30; pixels[i*4+2] = average; The green pixel is "above average". It is now going to be tinted green. Go ahead and give that a try: http://jsfiddle.net/3eUBk/2/
