Description
TColorBoxStyles and TColorBoxStyle specify how a color box control displays its selections.
The following table lists the possible values of TColorBoxStyle:
| Style | Meaning when included |
|---|---|
|
cbStandardColors |
The color box lists the first 16 color constants from the Graphics unit. These are the constants such as clRed or clBlack, that represent fixed RGB values. |
|
cbExtendedColors |
The color box includes clMoneyGreen, clSkyBlue, clCream, and clMedGray. |
|
cbSystemColors |
The color box includes the symbolic color constants that reflect the values specified in the Windows control panel. |
|
cbIncludeNone |
The color box includes clNone. This option only has an effect if Style includes cbSystemColors. |
|
cbIncludeDefault |
The color box includes clNone. This option only has an effect if Style includes cbSystemColors. |
|
cbCustomColor |
The first entry in the color box represents a custom color. When you select the Custom entry, the color box displays the Color selection dialog, where you can specify a custom color. |
|
cbPrettyNames |
The color box lists the names as words rather than as the color constant strings (for example 'Black' rather than 'clBlack'). |
|
cbExtendedColors |
The color box lists a customized list of colors. Use the OnGetColors event to populate this list of colors (the displayed name and corresponding color). |
- Note: The cbCustomColor value allows you to select only a custom color from the ColorDialog that is opened.
- Note: In the OnGetColors event, you can add as many colors as you want to the color box list.
