How to use argb colors that are included in the script?

Hi

I have a txt file, in which I have defined some colors to use in my charts:

/* graf farver */

SET vGrafFarve1 = argb(550,141,170,203);

SET vGrafFarve2 = argb(500, 0,64,128);         

SET vGrafFarve3 = argb(500,168,203,46);

SET vGrafFarve4 = argb(600,128,64,0);

SET vGrafFarve5 = argb(100,229,182,148);

It is loaded in the script like this:

// color palette
$(Include=E:\QV12 UDVL\Statistik\Standard formater\color_variables.txt);


In my variable overview it looks like the txt file is correctly loaded:

When I make a chart and define the colors in the colors tab, I do like this:

pic3.png

QV says the expression is OK, but it does not give me the defined color??

Any advice?

If I write the argb color code, instead of the variable vGrafFarve1, I still dont get the defined color.

But if a type is as a rgb color and ie. rgb(141,170,203) it gives me ne color I want.

My question is, can't QV read argb colors?

Kind regards

Maria

I Have tried your ARGB color and it seems to work fine on my side, what objects are you trying to color?
