>>> cc.askcolor('red') ((255, 0, 0), '#ff0000') >>> cc.askcolor((255, 0, 0)) ((255, 0, 0), '#ff0000') >>> cc.askcolor((65535, 0, 0)) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/cheryl/cpython/Lib/tkinter/colorchooser.py", line 75, in askcolor return Chooser(**options).show() File "/home/cheryl/cpython/Lib/tkinter/commondialog.py", line 43, in show s = w.tk.call(self.command, *w._options(self.options)) _tkinter.TclError: invalid color name "#ffff0000" Changing _fixoptions to format initialcolor using "#%04x%04x%04x" % color. allows for 16-bit hex values, but it's not the same as 8-bit. >>> cc.askcolor('red') ((255, 0, 0), '#ff0000') >>> cc.askcolor((255, 0, 0)) ((0, 0, 0), '#000000') >>> cc.askcolor((65535, 0, 0)) ((255, 0, 0), '#ff0000') (255, 0, 0) in the second call is black and not red. ---------- nosy: +csabella _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33289> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
