Is there any way to use hex values in ph function data
elements?

When setting colors for Control Center objects it sure
would be nice to enter "FF0000" instead of "268369920"
for the color RED. The latter is not exactly user
friendly!

You can use

rgb(255, 255, 0 )

instead.

The above is red or yellow I forget which.

I use the rgb() function, but I think there is a way to use hex. I can't find it now.

rgb( 200, 0, 0 )

Good for you!

Sometimes I just browse the Function Index list in the
Help window to see if I can see anything that I might
want to learn more about, or use later.

I've started my own notebook of useful functions doco so
I can find them later!

This one will get added.
