B4J Question Label Color From database

[Luis Felipe Andrade]

Hello,

I have tried to change the color of a TEXT label in B4J, the parameters for the color comes in ARGB with the value 15, 44, 89, 255 (Cain of Blue) but how to combine these numbers with CSSUtils or using label1.style? Please note I can't just type 'Blue' becouse the default Blue is diferent of the color I wish. all the examples on the forum are using the name of the color directly.

'Also tryed:
pfontcolor="#FF0F2C59" ' same blue I need
CSSUtils.SetStyleProperty(lbs_dia,"-fx-text-fill",pfontcolor)
'another test:
lbs_dia.Style = "-fx-text-fill: " & pfontcolor & ";"

'But in both cases the color change to blue for the background in the label, but I need to change Textcolor foregroung'

Thank you in advance for your comments.

lbs_dia.Style = $"-fx-text-fill:${pfontcolor};"$

Why not set it with B4XView.TextColor??????

The RGBA numbers you mentioned 15, 44, 89, 255 imply that 255 is the transparency (i.e. opaque)
The other number #FF0F2C59 has transparence at the start, which is what is expected in B4X (ARGB).
So there are two convenient ways of setting the TextColor.

'method 1
lbs_dia.As(B4XView).TextColor = xui.Color_ARGB(255, 15, 44, 89)

'method 2
lbs_dia.As(B4XView).TextColor = 0xFF0F2C59

lbs_dia.Style = $"-fx-text-fill:${pfontcolor};"$

Thank you! it works that way using #FF0F2C59 format

Thank you William, this code and example works perfect for me!
