I am working on application in which i have five colors:Red,Green,Blue,Yellow,purple
I want to implement color mixing from those colors:such that like there are five button for each color.
User touch whichever color button this color mix with previously drawn color.
I have not any clue how to add two color codes and get third color.
EDitED:
I have to also set this color to imageview's bitmap
how can i set this?
An alternative answer:
You can mix the bits in the hexs:
public static int mixTwoColors( int color1, int color2, float amount )
{
final byte ALPHA_CHANNEL = 24;
final byte RED_CHANNEL = 16;
final byte GREEN_CHANNEL = 8;
final byte BLUE_CHANNEL = 0;
final float inverseAmount = 1.0f - amount;
int a = ((int)(((float)(color1 >> ALPHA_CHANNEL & 0xff )*amount) +
((float)(color2 >> ALPHA_CHANNEL & 0xff )*inverseAmount))) & 0xff;
int r = ((int)(((float)(color1 >> RED_CHANNEL & 0xff )*amount) +
((float)(color2 >> RED_CHANNEL & 0xff )*inverseAmount))) & 0xff;
int g = ((int)(((float)(color1 >> GREEN_CHANNEL & 0xff )*amount) +
((float)(color2 >> GREEN_CHANNEL & 0xff )*inverseAmount))) & 0xff;
int b = ((int)(((float)(color1 & 0xff )*amount) +
((float)(color2 & 0xff )*inverseAmount))) & 0xff;
return a << ALPHA_CHANNEL | r << RED_CHANNEL | g << GREEN_CHANNEL | b << BLUE_CHANNEL;
}
