GetBlueValue Function

Overview

The GetBlueValue function retrieves the blue component from an RGB dword or string value.

Syntax/Parameters

Syntax

byte = GetBlueValue ( dword data );

int  = GetBlueValue ( string data );

Parameters

data

A dword representing a 24-bit RGB value or

a string as RGB hex (#rrggbb, #rtb), RGB CSS ( rgb(rrr,ggg,bbb) ), or a web standard color name.

Return Value

Returns a byte representing the blue color.

Remarks

The GetBlueValue function returns the 8 bits (byte) of a 24-bit color value that represents the blue portion. The version of this function that accepts a dword as the input parameter does not return an error while the version that takes a string will return -1 on a syntax error or bad color name. If a byte is used to store the return value for the string version, -1 will be truncated to 0xFF with a runtime warning. Either way, use the IsError or GetLastError function to determine if an error occurred.
