RGB24ToName(rgb,opts)
rgb
-
list; [r,g,b] color values, integer values 0-255
opts
(optional) equation(s) of the form option=value where option is one of new or default
new = boolean : indicates whether to restrict to new color names (true), old color names (false), or no restriction (the default)
default = string : default value to return when there is no match
The RGB24ToName procedure converts from RGB color values to a color name.
The new option acts as follows:
new=true: only search new color names
new=false: only search old color names
default (option new not specified): search both new and old color names
If a default value is provided, then that is returned when no match is found, otherwise an error occurs.
