## Detailed Description

An RGBA Color.

The RGBA class is a convenient way to pass rgba colors around. It's based on cairo's way to deal with (possibly translucent) colors and mirrors its behavior. All values are in the range from 0.0 to 1.0 inclusive. So the color (0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0) represents transparent black and (1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0) is opaque white. Other values will be clamped to this range when drawing.

const GdkRGBA* Gdk::RGBA::gobj | ( |  | ) | const`[inline]`

Provides access to the underlying C instance.

GdkRGBA* Gdk::RGBA::gobj | ( |  | ) | `[inline]`

Provides access to the underlying C instance.

GdkRGBA* Gdk::RGBA::gobj_copy | ( |  | ) | const

Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for freeing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

RGBA& Gdk::RGBA::operator= | ( | const RGBA& | other | ) |

bool Gdk::RGBA::set | ( | const Glib::ustring & | value | ) |

Parses a textual representation of a color, filling in the <structfield>red</structfield>, <structfield>green</structfield>, <structfield>blue</structfield> and <structfield>alpha</structfield> fields of the rgba struct.

The string can be either one of: <itemizedlist> <listitem> A standard name (Taken from the X11 rgb.txt file). </listitem> <listitem> A hex value in the form '#rgb' '#rrggbb' '#rrrgggbbb' or '#rrrrggggbbbb' </listitem> <listitem> A RGB color in the form 'rgb(r,g,b)' (In this case the color will have full opacity) </listitem> <listitem> A RGBA color in the form 'rgba(r,g,b,a)' </listitem> </itemizedlist>

Where 'r', 'g', 'b' and 'a' are respectively the red, green, blue and alpha color values. In the last two cases, r g and b are either integers in the range 0 to 255 or precentage values in the range 0% to 100%, and a is a floating point value in the range 0 to 1.
