Color selection to string

[kj800x]

Have you looked at the Android Color documentation? The color ints that HoloColorPicker creates is compliant with that class, and you can use that class to break a color into ARGB, HSVA or HSBA.

ok. will do. Quick question though, does HoloColorPicker create the int in a hex format that is compatible with web/css color codes?

Documentations says:

int com.larswerkman.holocolorpicker.ColorPicker.getColor()
Get the currently selected color.
Returns:
The ARGB value of the currently selected color.

"int in a hex format" does not compute. An int is an int. If you aren't familiar with ARGB or HSLA, you have some homework to do.

But, to be courteous, no. You need to use the Android Color class to help you get there.

    int color = picker.getColor();
    long highlight_id = 0;
    String alpha = String.format("%02x", Color.alpha(color)),
                red = String.format("%02x", Color.red(color)),
                green = String.format("%02x", Color.green(color)),
                blue = String.format("%02x", Color.blue(color));

Now you have four strings that look like four hex values that resemble the ARGB. You seem to be stuck in the mindset that CSS colors are always #AARRGGBB. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/color_value.

I'm using this function
String.format("#%06X", 0x00FFFFFF & color);
