h1. How is the color value specified in the Area Section Properties database table?

*Answer:* Each color has a designated RGB value. The integer value (long) may be calculated for the color parameter, then specified in the database table, through the following formula:

* Color parameter = R + G * 256 + B * 256{^}2^
\\
\\
where R, G, and B may be 0 - 255


For example, blue has a RGB value of (0, 0, 255), therefore its color parameter is 0 + 0 * 256 + 255 * 256{^}2^ = 16711680.
