SpotlightLighting device color

The gel color of a lighting device is specified by the Color parameter in the Object Info palette or Lighting Device dialog box. Define the color by one of these methods.

RGB values separated by commas (such as 191, 49, 26); values must be between 0 and 255

Manufacturer color codes, by manufacturer name or abbreviation and color number (such as Gam 650, G 650, G-650, or G650)

Name of the color as specified in the file’s color palettes (see Applying colors)

Web hex values prefixed by the pound sign (such as #003366)

Combinations of two or more colors (such as R46+R10); the resultant calculated color combination displays, just as when combining actual color filters. Invalid single colors are treated as white when calculating color combinations.
