Pdf Color-class

Aspose.PDF Product Family

Hello,

I was wondering, is it a lot of work to add a "getColor" function to the color-class ?

On i-series it's "impossible" to retrieve class-fields, so I can't use the pre-defined colors. If you provide a function that returns a color-object for a specified "color-name" this would be a great help !

Thanks,

Goddeau Hendrik

Dear Goddeau,

Thank you for considering Aspose.

Color name is supported. Please refer to Class Color | Aspose.PDF for .NET API Reference.

Hello again,

I'm having some troubles using this method :

received Java exception "java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string:
"Red"" when calling method "" with signature "(Ljava.lang.String;)V"
in class "com.aspose.pdf.elements.RgbColorSpace".

It seemes there 's a quote to much ?!

Sorry I don’t know you are using Java version. In Java version only the names listed at Color | Aspose.PDF for Java API Reference are supported. You can use them like the following:

text1.getTextInfo().setTextColor(Color.Red);

Btw, you can refer to the ColorExample.java and ColorSpaceExample.java in the examples of Aspose.Pdf for Java.

Ok, but “Red” is one of the valid colors !

I tested text1.getTextInfo().setTextColor(Color.Red);
and no error is found. If you still can’t use Red color please provide your code that can reproduce this error.

I know this works, but as I mentioned at the beginning of this topic "I can't use class fields on iseries" !

In your example you use Color.red, where red is a field of class "Color".

I'm looking for a function that returns a color-object for a given color-name. I thought the rgbColorspace constructor would solve my problem, but I get an error (see previous messages).

Something like Color RedColor = getColor("Red") would help me a lot.

Thanks,

Goddeau H.

It seems that is not supported. I will discuss with the developer and we will try to support it soon.

Color.getColor() has been added into the new version 2.2.

10

Which colors are supported ?

I tested some (Maroon, Lime, Fuchsia, ... that work), but 'Blue' doesn't work !?

Thanks
