 Special color names in CDML |

Hi Peter,
Is it possible to use the specialized color names (DataColor, TextColor) from CDML? Something like:
axis.addLabel(firstTick, '<*color=Transparent*>'+firstLabel+'<*color=TextColor*>'+firstLabel)
This doesn't seem to be working though.
Thanks,
Naveen |

Hi Naveen,
Yes, you can use specialized colors in CDML.
All ChartDirector colors are integers. DataColor, TextColor, Transparent, etc., are also integers. (They are predefined integer constants.)
CDML expects the integer colors to be expressed in hexadecimal. So you just need to express the integers in hexadecimal.
For example, in Python:
'<*color=' + hex(Transparent) + '*>' + firstLabel+'<*color=' + hex(TextColor) + '*>' + firstLabel
Hope this can help.
