RTF Functions > VpeSetRTFColor

Modify the build-in RTF color table.

void VpeSetRTFColor(

VpeHandle hDoc,

int ID,

COLORREF color

)

VpeHandle hDoc

Document Handle

int id

the entry ID

COLORREF color

one of the predefined "COLOR_xyz" constants described in Programmer's Manual or any RGB value that shall be assigned to the given entry-id

Remarks:

RTF offers no way to set a transparent background mode, like VPE does. So we decided to set the background mode to transparent, in that case you use COLOR_WHITE = RGB(255, 255, 255) as background color.

VPE has build-in a predefined color table:

color1	BLACK	RGB(0, 0, 0)
color2	DKGRAY	RGB(128, 128, 128)
color3	GRAY	RGB(192, 192, 192)
color4	LTGRAY	RGB(230, 230, 230)
color5	WHITE	RGB(255, 255, 255)
color6	DKRED	RGB(128, 0, 0)
color7	RED	RGB(192, 0, 0)
color8	LTRED	RGB(255, 0, 0)
color9	DKORANGE	RGB(255, 64, 0)
color10	ORANGE	RGB(255, 128, 0)
color11	LTORANGE	RGB(255, 192, 0)
color12	DKYELLOW	RGB(224, 224, 0)
color13	YELLOW	RGB(242, 242, 0)
color14	LTYELLOW	RGB(255, 255, 0)
color15	DKGREEN	RGB(0, 128, 0)
color16	GREEN	RGB(0, 192, 0)
color17	LTGREEN	RGB(0, 255, 0)
color18	HIGREEN	RGB(0, 255, 128)
color19	BLUEGREEN	RGB(0, 128, 128)
color20	OLIVE	RGB(128, 128, 0)
color21	BROWN	RGB(128, 80, 0)
color22	DKBLUE	RGB(0, 0, 128)
color23	BLUE	RGB(0, 0, 255)
color24	LTBLUE	RGB(0, 128, 255)
color25	LTLTBLUE	RGB(0, 160, 255)
color26	HIBLUE	RGB(0, 192, 255)
color27	CYAN	RGB(0, 255, 255)
color28	DKPURPLE	RGB(128, 0, 128)
color29	PURPLE	RGB(192, 0, 192)
color30	MAGENTA	RGB(255, 0, 255)

Examples:

change color1 with

VpeSetRTFColor(hDoc, 1, RGB(10, 10, 10))

Or you can add as many colors to the table as you like, for example:

VpeSetRTFColor(hDoc, 31, RGB(10, 20, 30))
