IncColor function
Increases the component RGB values in a color by the specified amount (results in a lighter color overall).
Declaration
function IncColor(AColor: TColor; AQuantity: Byte): TColorArguments
AColor | TColor value with the original color modified in the function. |
AQuantity | The amount by which the separate RGB values in AColor are increased. |
Function result
TColor value with RGB components incremented by the specified amount.
Description
IncColor separates the color specified in AColor into its Red,
Green, and Blue component Byte values. It increases each the RGB Byte values by
the amount specified in AQuantity with an upper limit of 255 for each of the
Byte values. The modified RGB Byte values are reassembled using RGBToColor to
form the return value for the routine.
For example:
AColor := IncColor(clNavy, 32); // lighten by 12.5%
Use DecColor to decrease (or darken) the RGB component values in a color.
