Usage[edit]
{{User:Isaacl/Colour convert|127|0|255|to=sRGB}}
{{User:Isaacl/Colour convert|49.803921568627%|0%|100%|to=sRGB24bit}}
{{User:Isaacl/Colour convert|steelblue|from=W3Cnames|to=sRGB24bit}}
This template can convert to and from the following display formats:
- sRGB floating point: xx%, yy%, zz% where each value is between 0 and 100%
- sRGB 24-bit: XX, YY, ZZ where each value is between 0 and 255
- sRGB 24-bit hex: #XX, #YY, #ZZ where each value is a hex number between 00 and FF
- sRGB 24-bit hex string: #XXYYZZ where XX, YY, and ZZ are hex numbers between 00 and FF
- W3C colour names: a name as defined in W3C CSS Color Module Level 3
The starting display format is specified using the "from" parameter, and the final display format is specified using the "to" parameter, using the following values:
| Display format | value for "from"/"to" parameter | example |
|---|---|---|
| sRGB floating point | sRGB | {{User:Isaacl/Colour convert|49.803921568627%|0%|100%|from=sRGB|to=sRGB24bit}}
|
| sRGB 24-bit | sRGB24bit | {{User:Isaacl/Colour convert|127|0|255|from=sRGB24bit|to=sRGB}}
|
| sRGB 24-bit hex | sRGB24bitHex | {{User:Isaacl/Colour convert|#7F|#00|#FF|from=sRGB24bitHex|to=sRGB}}
|
| sRGB 24-bit hex string | sRGB24bitHexString | {{User:Isaacl/Colour convert|#7F00FF|from=sRGB24bitHexString|to=sRGB}}
|
| W3C colour names | W3Cnames | {{User:Isaacl/Colour convert|steelblue|from=W3Cnames|to=sRGB24bit}}
|
The template will automatically deduce if the starting display format is sRGB floating point, sRGB 24-bit, sRGB 24-bit hex, or sRGB 24-bit hex string, if the format shown in the examples is followed.
