Is there any way to convert a string to hexa and then to convert

  • 0

Is there any way to convert a string to hexa and then to convert it to a .Net color?

I would like to know how to convert a string of color ,say Black, to its Hexa '#000000' ?

i.e. if my input is “Black”, i should return "#000000"

My issue is:

i’m setting color and storing its name in an object. So, if it is white, the object keeps “white” ,but for certain shades, it is keeping the name as f12a12 ( an example). I appended “0x” befor such strings and it worked fine with the colortranslator. In case of the normal colors in Color object, i dont want to append this. I can make the string to search through the Colors but i would like to know whether there is any other way to do this?

    There is no way to get the HEX from the color name. You need to create a lookup table which holds the name of the color and also the HEX of that color. And only then you can get the HEX of that color.

    For your solution I am not sure, but I think to get the correct RGB values you need to have HEX of that color.
