Color RGB block

Description

The Color RGB block returns a color made by blending numerical values of red, green, and blue. Refer to an RGB chart to obtain specific colors. This is a code block part of the Traits drawer.

Usage

This block will create a color with an amount of red, green, and blue in it as specified by the input values.

Syntax

Inputs in this block:

  • First input: a number less than or equal to 255, for the red value
  • Second input: a number less than or equal to 255, for the green value
  • Third input: a number less than or equal to 255, for the blue value

Example

The model above depicts colorful turtles wandering throughout spaceland. The color of these turtles can be changed to a random value using a created button: 'color change!' Whenever that button is pushed, the turtle agents change their color to a random value. Take note that by using the red green blue block, there is a much wider spectrum of color available compared to simply using built in colors.

Color RGB example code

Notes

The Color RGB block provides precise control over colors by specifying RGB values from 0-255 for each color channel. This allows for a much wider range of colors than the built-in color options.

  • Color - Select from built-in colors
  • Set My to - Set an agent's color trait
  • My - Access an agent's current color trait
