Color in LSL
Color in LSLLSL has its own special format for color. LSL uses a vector to store color. Unlike traditional RGB where each channel is 0 -> 255, LSL's color channels are 0 -> 1.
Format: <R, G, B>
| • float | x | – | Red value | [0, 1] |
| • float | y | – | Green value | [0, 1] |
| • float | z | – | Blue value | [0, 1] |
Examples
| Color | Code |
|---|---|
| NAVY | <0.000, 0.122, 0.247>
|
| BLUE | <0.000, 0.455, 0.851>
|
| AQUA | <0.498, 0.859, 1.000>
|
| TEAL | <0.224, 0.800, 0.800>
|
| OLIVE | <0.239, 0.600, 0.439>
|
| GREEN | <0.180, 0.800, 0.251>
|
| LIME | <0.004, 1.000, 0.439>
|
| YELLOW | <1.000, 0.863, 0.000>
|
| ORANGE | <1.000, 0.522, 0.106>
|
| RED | <1.000, 0.255, 0.212>
|
| MAROON | <0.522, 0.078, 0.294>
|
| FUCHSIA | <0.941, 0.071, 0.745>
|
| PURPLE | <0.694, 0.051, 0.788>
|
| WHITE | <1.000, 1.000, 1.000>
|
| SILVER | <0.867, 0.867, 0.867>
|
| GRAY | <0.667, 0.667, 0.667>
|
| BLACK | <0.000, 0.000, 0.000>

Equivalent color vectors to the default color picker palette. These are defined in the viewer program directory's skins/default/colors.xml while custom user-saved palette entries will be in user_settings/colors.xml.
vector black = <0, 0, 0>; //ColorPaletteEntry01, "Black"

// Floating point conversions, ambient inworld light and color profile variances
// can show up as small differences in stored settings and externally picked samples
Useful Snippets
Useful functions for storing/retrieving color and alpha values to/from integers
integer ColorAlphatoRGBA(vector color, float alpha) {
return (((integer)(alpha * 255.0) & 0xFF) << 24) |
(((integer)(color.x * 255.0) & 0xFF) << 16) |
(((integer)(color.y * 255.0) & 0xFF) << 8) |
((integer)(color.z * 255.0) & 0xFF);
}
vector RGBAtoColor(integer rgba) {
return < (rgba >> 16) & 0xFF, (rgba >> 8) & 0xFF, (rgba & 0xFF) > / 255.0;
}
float RGBAtoAlpha(integer rgba) {
return ((rgba >> 24) & 0xFF) / 255.0;
}
Light colors
Unlike most other functions relating to color in LSL, lights operate in a slightly different color space and thus do not accept a regular RGB value. (Or, they will, however the displayed color will not be the expected color).
Fortunately, this is easily resolved with 2 functions:
- llsRGB2Linear - Convert regular LSL color into linear color. (for use in lights)
- llLinear2sRGB - Convert linear color to regular LSL color.
