Android Question Changing label.color

metrick · Oct 27, 2013

How to change label.color via csv file? I have tried following code not working. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

B4X:

dim strColorName as string
strColorName = ParseColorName(",", CSVtextfile, 2)
'CSVtextFile contained white, black, blue, yellow, red. etc.
'strColorName = "Blue"
strColorName = "Colors." & strColorName
Label1.Color = strColorName

You will need to store the colors actual value, not name.

Another option is to create a Map:

B4X:

Dim colorsMap As Map
colorsMap.Initialize
colorsMap.Put("white", Colors.White)
colorsMap.Put("black", Colors.Black)
...

Label1.Color = colorsMap.Get(strColorName)

Thank you, Erel. I have created a routine to convert colors to actual value.
