Re: [Flashcoders] Hex colors function?

[Marc Hoffman]

Ok, this looked like a fun project so I wrote code to construct an 
array of all web-safe colors:

hexColors = new Array("00", "33", "66", "99", "CC", "FF");
webSafePalette = new Array();
// length of webSafePalette will be length of hexColors cubed:
for (i = 0; i < Math.pow(hexColors.length, 3); i++) {
        for (r = 0; r < hexColors.length; r++) {
                for (g = 0; g < hexColors.length; g++) {
                        for (b = 0; b < hexColors.length; b++) {
                                webSafePalette[webSafePalette.length] 
= "0x" + hexColors[r] + hexColors[g] + hexColors[b];
                        }
                }
        }
}
// returns 216 values in hexadecimal format:
trace (webSafePalette);
You could modify to produce more colors just by modifying the 
elements in hexColors to reflect the number of incremental values for 
red, green, and blue.

Anyone have a function that returns an array of the hex color values for
a particular range (i.e., say the 144 hex colors you see in the Flash
IDE's color picker)?  Or know how to write one?  I'm not looking for a
complete color picker class or component, I'm creating my own with
specific needs, but to do so, I'm not sure how the hex number math
works.  Don't really want to enter all the values manually.

Thanks.
