change color

Asked by jamespaul

hello

I want to color the particles by region.But I found that only the combination of 255 and 0 can change color,such as (255, 0, 255)(0, 255, 255)(0,0,0).If I use other combination ,the color will be white.Is it because yade only shows a few colors?

I would appreciate if you can help me

James

     b.shape.color=(108, 51, 101)

Hi James,
use values normalized to interval [0,1], e.g.

b.shape.color = (72/255.,72/255.,147/255.)

cheers
