ObjectColor method in Python

I’m trying to understand how to work with what is returned by the ObjectColor method in Python. Here is a typical example:

Color [A=255, R=191, G=63, B=63]

At first glance this seems like a list, but I don’t believe it is. When I test for the object type, it returns the type as “color”. I can’t find any useful information on how to work with the type “color”.

All I’m trying to do is extract one of the values from the return, for example the R value only and print that.

How would I do that?

Thanks,

Dan

Hi Dan

the type is System.Drawing.Color:

You can use color.R, color.G, color.B, color.A to get the corresponding properties.
Alternatively you can also use any of the other additional methods that the Color data structure provides.

Thanks
