Color codes in Panel file

Postby Lysander77 » Sun Aug 27, 2006 4:20 pm

In adding a gauge to the panel file of an aircraft I found the line of code "Background_color=0,0,0" which I surmise is black.  Can anyone suggest the code necessary to achieve different colors? Or any source of information on this matter?
Many thanks in advance for any ideas.

Goto your favorite paint program (MS Paint will do).

Get into the color pallett, pick your color and read the R,G,B values.

Background_color=R,G,B

(0,0,0='absolute' black which is transparent in panels)

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.
