Parameters

r

The sRGB red component, R, of the new Color structure.

g

The sRGB green component, G, of the new Color structure.

b

The sRGB blue component, B, of the new Color structure..

Return Value

The Color structure created from r, g, and b and an alpha component value of 1.

The difference between a Color structure created with FromRgb and FromArgb is that FromArgb defines the alpha component while FromRgb uses a default value of 1 for the alpha component.

The alpha channel of a Color structure determines the amount of transparency the Color has. An alpha value of 1 indicates the Color is completely opaque and a value of 0 indicates the Color is completely transparent.

The sRGB components (A, R, G, B) and the ScRGB components (ScA, ScR, ScG, ScB) of the Color structure are synchronized properties. For example, when R, the sRGB red component, is modified the ScRGB red component, ScR, is transformed to the equivalent value.

The following example shows how to use the FromRgb method to create a Color structure.

C#
Copy 
private Color FromRgbExample()
{
    // Create a green color using the FromRgb static method.
    Color myRgbColor = new Color();
    myRgbColor = Color.FromRgb(0, 255, 0);
    return myRgbColor;
}
