Committed revision 1816663. > Support CSS3/X11 color names > ---------------------------- > > Key: PIVOT-984 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-984 > Project: Pivot > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: wtk > Affects Versions: 2.0.4, 2.1 > Environment: All > Reporter: Roger Whitcomb > Assignee: Roger Whitcomb > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.1 > > > The current set of color names is determined by the Java AWT color names, > which are basically the base 16 colors, plus a few. The latest web standards > build in the X11 colors names, which are a much larger list (see > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X11_color_names, and note the differences > between CSS3 and X11). > I would propose implementing the W3C standards since these are what current > web applications will be using. > The changes are easy enough (except for the "gray" vs. "grey" spellings and > possibly the X11/CSS3 differences) that I would consider changing it for > 2.0.5 except that this is a spec change that doesn't belong in a bug fix > release (unless someone could make a good case for it). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
