This has RGB it might help you for now

Yup just use AutoColorAid as linked above and it shows RGB, XYZ, HSL, and 'Simba' color too.
Have a little tutorial about it too, which you probably wont need but hey why not:

It's as simple as:


var
R, G, B: integer;
begin
ColorToRGB(16777215, R, G, B);
writeln(R);
writeln(G);
writeln(B);
end.

Or if you want to do it manually, paste that number to your calculator and covert it to hex, which is FFFFFF. Separate that to three parts (FF, FF and FF) and you have your RGB. R = FF (255), G = FF and B = FF. :)

No the color simba uses is BGR not RGB. The first FF is blue followed by green followed by red.

edit:
Because I want to show off:
program new;
var
colorA: Integer;
begin
colorA := 1420640; // := $15AD60
writeln(colorA);
writeln('red: ' + ToStr(colorA shr 0 and $ff));
writeln('blue: ' + ToStr(colorA shr 8 and $ff));
writeln('green: ' + ToStr(colorA shr 16 and $ff));
end.

@MasterBB, what does 'shr' do? I have seen it before but don't know what it is for :P

Shift right. You ought to know with your signature. ;)

Aah, thanks!
This page explained it a bit better: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_shift :)
That I know how to convert decimal to binary does not mean I have a lot of knowledge about bitwise operations.. although Im still learning :smarty:
