Working with Color Objects
Your scripts can use the same range of colors that are available from the Photoshop CS3 user interface.
Each color model has its own set of properties. For example, the
RGB color (RGBColor/RGBColor) class
contains three properties: red, blue and green. To set a color in this class, you indicate values for each of
the three properties.
In VBScript and JavaScript, the
SolidColor class contains a property for each color model. To use this
object, you first create an instance of a
SolidColor object, then set appropriate color model properties for
the object. Once a color model has been assigned to a
SolidColor object, the SolidColor object cannot
be reassigned to a different color model.
The following examples demonstrate how to set a color using the
CMYK color class.
AS
set foreground color to {class:CMYK color, cyan:20.0,¬
magenta:90.0, yellow:50.0, black:50.0}
