Question

I’m making a small tool. I just want to know if the switch in the code below is the quickest/best way to achieve this? In PHP, I’d reference the variable name dynamically like $Stop{int Stop} -> $BackColor = "Color"

public void Populate(Color Color, int Stop)
{
    Colour.BackColor = Color;             // Bottom left - PictureBox
    Hex.Text = ARGBToHex(Color.ToArgb()); // Hex (#703919) - TextBox
    Red.Text = Color.R.ToString();        // Red (153) - TextBox
    Green.Text = Color.G.ToString();      // Green (180) - TextBox
    Blue.Text = Color.B.ToString();       // Blue (209) - TextBox
    Alpha.Text = "100";                   // Alpha (100) - TextBox
    StopText.Text = Stop.ToString();      // Read-only (1) - TextBox
    switch(Convert.ToInt16(StopText.Text))
    {
        case 1: Stop1.BackColor = Color; break;  // Small light blue rectangle - PictureBox
        case 2: Stop2.BackColor = Color; break;  // Small dark blue rectangle - PictureBox
    }
}

You can do this:

this.Controls.OfType<PictureBox>().First(x => x.Name.EndsWith(StopText.Text)).BackColor = Color;
