Remarks

The BuildColor method starts a user interface for selecting a color value.

The ColorBuilder class is not intended for use outside of the design time environment. ColorBuilder requires the IWebFormsBuilderUIService, which is typically available within a Web Forms project at design time. If you want to build HTML color strings, you may want to implement a method that converts the RGB values of a Color object to an HTML-compatible RRGGBB format string. If you intend to use a control to select a color or configure a color, you can build a user interface for this, or you may want to use a PropertyGrid control which allows you to edit Color properties with the default ColorEditor providing a color selection interface.

Methods

BuildColor(IComponent, Control, String)	Starts a color editor to build an HTML color property value.
Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
