Specifies the color designation scheme to be used for interpretation of numerical color values.
Usage
[LegacyColorValue = LogicalValue]Where:
- LogicalValue - a true/false value; True = Enable; False = Disable.
- If the attribute is set to False, or not present in the study's code, the RGB (new) 16M color scheme will be used.
- If LegacyColorValue the attribute is set to True, the legacy (old) 16-bit, 16-color scheme will be used.
Notes
When a color name is converted to a numerical color value, the specified scheme will be followed.
To ensure compatibility, the attribute [LegacyColorValue = True] is inserted automatically when older versions, prior to v8.1, of EasyLanguage studies are imported.
Examples
Enable legacy color value interpretation:
[LegacyColorValue = True];Create a Green color plot using the legacy color scheme:
[LegacyColorValue = True];
Plot1(Open);
SetPlotColor(1,4);Create a Green color plot using the RGB color scheme:
[LegacyColorValue = False];
Plot1(Open);
SetPlotColor(1,65280);Assign a value, representing the color Green under the legacy color scheme, to Value1 (Value1 will be assigned a value of 4):
[LegacyColorValue = True];
Value1 = Green;Assign a value, representing the color Green under the RGB color scheme, to Value1 (Value1 will be assigned a value of 65280):
[LegacyColorValue = False];
Value1 = Green;
