Description
Procedure PenFore sets the active pen foreground color for the document. RGB values are in the range of 0~65535.
PROCEDURE PenFore(
color :LONGINT);
def vs.PenFore(color):
return None
Parameters
color LONGINT RGB color value to be set as active pen foreground.
Remarks
Orso: This Procedure will also accept a single INTEGER Color Palette Index value in lieu of three LONGINT RGB values for the COLOR parameter. The Color index can be obtained with VS:RGBToColorIndex. See remarks under VS:SetPenFore for more infos. On Vectorlab there is a list of all color routines accepting multiple variable type, see: Color Index.
When using this command, you should check for the black background preference setting if you're trying to draw black lines.
Example
VectorScript
colorIndex := RGBToColorIndex(65535, 0, 0);
PenFore(colorIndex); { alternative: using a color index }
PenFore(65535, 0, 39321); { alternative: using an RGB triplet }
Python
vs.PenFore((65535, 0, 39321))
