Help with color in json-ui?

[true oriole]

Im currently trying to work with the $color stuff but im not quite sure on how it works

"$color": [
            1,
            0.3,
            0.1
                 ],``` could someone explain how the colors work?

like im not sure how 1 is fully red etc

like what kind of color code is used?

Color property values are divided from RGB values into 1. ( <RGB value> divide 255 ), you should get some values like [ 0.956, 0.505, 0.333 ] ( RGB — 244, 129, 85 )

[ 1, 1, 1 ] by default are white. and [ 0, 0, 0 ] are black. and so on.

so if it was like r: 212 id do 212/255?

[buoyant mason]

yeah. you should get the number ranged from 0 to 1.

ahh alr thank you

i needed it for a hover of a button but i MIGHT switch to just textures

[true oriole]

ahh yeah, thank you i got it lol, i wanted it to be a like pure red but i wasnt sure what i was edting, all i knew was rgb

[buoyant mason]

Oh that's nice.

[true oriole]

any suggestions? im not too sure

[buoyant mason]

if you're using color property on image. make sure it must be white texture based or otherwise it'll apply the existing color, essentially mixing them together like what you wouldn't expected it to.

Dark + bright red = dark red, by that logic of course.

hm

so i should make a light button?

[buoyant mason]

well I suppose. you can make them abit darker with color property if you will.

[true oriole]

well, with the color property can i make it a lighter red? I wasnt really looking for this dark of red lol.

[buoyant mason]

you can.

like I said, it works like RGB but divided into 1. the texture color will also affected aswell resulting color mix.

so, white texture are highly recommended.

[true oriole]

alright i might do that. but should I use minecraftFive or minecraftSeven?

[buoyant mason]

Depends on your taste of UI. I'm not sure with that.

[true oriole]

[buoyant mason]
