G.mark by colorName

thom

Hello,

Wouldn’t be nice if the color marking looks for (also) the color name it set in?
Now, if I change a color in the prefs it will not be updated since only RGBA is stored in the .glif.

Yup, I already had a solution:

f = CurrentFont()
g = CurrentGlyph()

red = (1,0,0,1)
cyan = (0,1,1,1)

for g in f:
    if g.mark == cyan:
        g.mark = red
        g.update()

:)

The name is just as reference and has no other meaning. The color data in side a UFO is idd stored as an RGBA tuple.

A small tip:
you can search for colors (see screenshot)

good luck
