Protected Methods

Name

Description

CMFCColorPickerCtrl::DrawCursor

Called by the framework before a cursor that points to the selected color is displayed.

Remarks

Standard colors are selected from a hexagonal color palette, and custom colors are selected from a luminance bar where colors are specified using either red/green/blue notation or hue/satuaration/luminance notation.

The following illustration depicts several CMFCColorPickerCtrl objects.

ColorPicker

The CMFCColorPickerCtrl supports two pairs of styles. The HEX and HEX_GREYSCALE styles are appropriate for standard color selection. The PICKER and LUMINANCE styles are appropriate for custom color selection.

Perform the following steps to incorporate the CMFCColorPickerCtrl control into your dialog box:

  1. If you use the ClassWizard, insert a new button control into your dialog box template (because the CMFCColorPickerCtrl class is inherited from the CButton class).

  2. Insert a member variable that is associated with the new button control into your dialog box class. Then change the variable type from CButton to CMFCColorPickerCtrl.

  3. Insert the WM_INITDIALOG message handler for the dialog box class. In the handler, set the type, palette, and initial selected color of the CMFCColorPickerCtrl control.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to configure a CMFCColorPickerCtrl object by using various methods in the CMFCColorPickerCtrl class. The example demonstrates how to set the type of the picker control, and how to set its color, hue, luminance, and saturation. The example is part of the NewControls Sample: MFC Controls Demonstration Application.

  CMFCColorPickerCtrl m_wndLum;


...


    // CPalette m_palSys
    // set the type of the color picker control
    m_wndLum.SetType(CMFCColorPickerCtrl::LUMINANCE);
    m_wndLum.SetPalette(&m_palSys);
    // set the color, hue, luminance and saturation of the color picker control
    m_wndLum.SetColor(RGB(0, 255, 0));
    m_wndLum.SetHue(0.5);
    m_wndLum.SetLuminance(2.5);
    m_wndLum.SetLuminanceBarWidth(10);
    m_wndLum.SetSaturation(0.5);
