Customizing the RGB Database
The RGB database associates symbolic color names with specific Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) values. X applications request these values and/or color names when drawing on your screen.
To set the RGB Database:
- Select the Xconfig file in which you want to customize the RGB database and open the Exceed onDemand Xconfig dialog box.
- On the Video page, click Edit in the RGB Database area. The rgb.txt file opens in a text file editor.
- Make the necessary modifications to the rgb.txt file.
-
If you set new RGB values, they must be in the range of 0 to 255. The color name box is not case sensitive and spaces are ignored. Each valid line in the rgb.txt file has the following format:
|
Red
|
Green
|
Blue
|
Color Name
|
Sample:
|
70
|
130
|
180
|
SteelBlue
|
-
The color named SteelBlue has a Red value of 70, a Green value of 130, and a Blue value of 180.
Note:
|
|
The Exceed onDemand proxy log file contains a record of any client requests for colors not defined in the RGB Database. You can then add these colors to the database for future use. |
- Click Save to save your changes and to close the text file editor.
- In the Exceed onDemand Xconfig dialog box, click OK to save changes and close the dialog box or click Apply and select another tab to continue modifying the Xconfig file.
