Font color for a text_box

[connor]

How do I set the font color for a text box?

the rails controller the generates the pdf has the following code...

pdf = Prawn::Document.new(page_size:  "A4",margin: [0,0,0,0])

        pdf.font_families.update("Century" => {

            :normal => "#{Rails.root}/app/assets/fonts/century_normal.ttf",

            :bold => "#{Rails.root}/app/assets/fonts/century_bold.ttf"

          })

        pdf.font "Century"

        # pdf.fill_color "0000ff"

        pdf.text_box "Mr Nobody", :at => [100, 600], :align => :center, size: 25, style: :bold, color: '#3172bd'

       send_data pdf.render, filename: 'report.pdf', type: 'application/pdf'

which generates the correct font but not the color?

Prawn::Document.generate("hello.pdf") do
  fill_color '3172bd'
  text_box "Mr Nobody", at: [100, 600], align: :center, size: 25, style: :bold
end

You don't need to put in the hash symbol into color. Just 6 digits of hex color.

I tried that but it just throws an error "undefined method `fill_color'"

sorry that works,

I hadn't changed it to  "fill_color '3172bd'"
