Summary

The COLORREF value is used to specify or retrieve an RGB color.

.

struct COLORREF {

.

public struct COLORREF

.

   public COLORREF(System.Drawing.Color color)

.

    public struct COLORREF {

.

    public COLORREF(byte r, byte g, byte b) {

.

    public COLORREF(uint value) {

.

Structure COLORREF

.

Actually, there's no COLORREF structure in native Win32. It is typedef-ed to DWORD, which means that in the managed world its direct counterpart is [System.Int32] (aka int in C#). So, when faced with interop involving COLORREF'S you'd better treat them as int's. Also have in mind that the color components are stored in reverse order, i.e. the Red component is in the lowest-byte. In short, the format is 0x00BBGGRR. You can use a code similar to the following to obtain a COLORREF:

.

private static int MakeCOLORREF(byte r, byte g, byte b)

.

For converting COLORREF from and to .net's Color use 'ColorTranslator.ToWin32' and 'ColorTranslator.FromWin32' methods.
