Color Codes

[KYGISMAN]

I am having problems using the hexadecimal color system in kml. Could someone give me a few pointers on editing your color schemes in the kml file. Any comments are appreciated. This applies to both linesyles and polyfills.

Not sure if this helps at all but....


Red linestyle:

<LineStyle>
<color>ff0000ff</color>
</LineStyle>


Blue polystyle:

<PolyStyle>
<color>ffff0000</color>
</PolyStyle>

The colors are in hexidecimal code (base 16, 00-ff)
They are in the format:
alpha, blue, green, red ( a reversal of normal red,green, blue)
where alpha is the tranparency setting 00 for clear, ff for solid

For example:
ff0000ff is solid red
330000ff is a transpanent (see thru) red

ff00ff00 is solid green
ffff0000 is solid blue
ff00ffff is solid yellow (mixing of red and green)
ffff00ff is solid purple (mixing of red & blue)

77008cff is semi-transparent orange
