colour_get_value(col);
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| col | The colour to check |
Returns: Real
This function will return the value (luminosity) of the given
colour. This is the amount of the "light" that is mixed into the
final colour and is part of the hue, saturation and value method
for defining a colour. The following image illustrates how this
value corresponds to the HSV scale of colour:
col = make_colour_hsv(random(255), 255, colour_get_value(c_teal));
The above code gets the value used to make the colour constant "c_teal" and then uses that value to set a random colour to have the same luminosity, storing the resulting colour in the variable "col".
