How to get hex web String from JavaFX ColorPicker color?

I have Color chosen in JavaFX ColorPicker. Now I need to save it as hex string. I found this method, but for JavaFX it is not applicable. JavaFX has its own Color class without getRGB() method, that could be used as mediatory convertion.

Solution

  • This fragile solution does the trick perfectly:

    // 8 symbols.
String hex1 = Integer.toHexString(myColorPicker.getValue().hashCode()); 

// With # prefix.
String hex2 = "#" + Integer.toHexString(myColorPicker.getValue().hashCode()); 

// 6 symbols in capital letters.
String hex3 = Integer.toHexString(myColorPicker.getValue().hashCode()).substring(0, 6).toUpperCase();
