💖 NAME 💖

color — creates an entry in the database that functions as part of a color lookup table for displayed regions. 💅

okay so this is COLOR(nged), from the BRL-CAD User Commands set — the nged manual page, bestie. It's literally the command that gives your displayed regions their lookup-table color moment. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

color [-e] [low high r g b]

That's the whole fit. -e is the editor flag, and low high r g b are the range-and-color args. 🎀

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Here's the tea: color creates an entry in the database that functions as part of a color lookup table for displayed regions. The ident number for the region is used to find the appropriate color from the lookup table. 🦋

The low and high values are the limits of region ident numbers to have the indicated rgb color (0-255) applied. So yes, you're giving a whole ident range its color era. 🔥

Wanna peek at the current list of color table entries? That may be displayed with the prcolor command. Wanna edit the entire color table? You can use the -e option and/or the edcolor command. 🎀

🚨 Warning, bestie: if a color lookup table exists, its entries will override any color assigned using the mater command. The lookup table said "my turn" and honestly it meant it. 💀

🎀 EXAMPLES 🎀

The example shows the use of the color command to make an entry in the color lookup table for regions within a specified range of idents. 🫶

Example 1. Making an entry in the color lookup table for regions within a specified range of idents using the color red.

mged>color 1100 1200 255 0 0

Makes an entry in the color lookup table for regions with idents from 1100-1200 using the color red. ❤️

Example 2. Open the color table editor

mged>color -e

Opens a text editor which displays and allows editing for the current color table. 📝✨
