Namespace std.std.graphics

Struct Color Extension
Method New(hex:String)

End Method
End

Should the above code work, is it wrong, or is adding an overloaded New() via Extention not allowed?

I think will be better to add this constructor to Color struct.

Looks like we can’t add constructors via extensions.

But you can add function:

Monkey

Struct Color Extension Function Parse:Color( hex:String ) Local color:Color ' parse hex Return color End End

Struct Color Extension
Function Parse:Color( hex:String )
Local color:Color
' parse hex
Return color
End
End

and use it this way: Local color:=Color.Parse( "#FF5588" ).

Thanks, I’ll go the Color.Create() route.

If you get around to it , a Ctor that takes #ffffffff and #ffffff params would be nice.
