FL/Enumerations.H.

This appendix lists the enumerations provided in the <FL/Enumerations.H> header file, organized by section. Constants whose value is zero are marked with "(0)", this is often useful to know when programming.

Version Numbers

The FLTK version number is stored in a number of compile-time constants:

• FL_MAJOR_VERSION - The major release number, currently 1.

Colors

The Fl_Color enumeration type holds a FLTK color value. Colors are either 8-bit indexes into a virtual colormap or 24-bit RGB color values. Color indices occupy the lower 8 bits of the value, while RGB colors occupy the upper 24 bits, for a byte organization of RGBI.

Color Constants

Constants are defined for the user-defined foreground and background colors, as well as specific colors and the start of the grayscale ramp and color cube in the virtual colormap. Inline functions are provided to retrieve specific grayscale, color cube, or RGB color values.

The following color constants can be used to access the user-defined colors:

• FL_BACKGROUND_COLOR - the default background color
• FL_BACKGROUND2_COLOR - the default background color for text, list, and valuator widgets
• FL_FOREGROUND_COLOR - the default foreground color (0) used for labels and text
• FL_INACTIVE_COLOR - the inactive foreground color
• FL_SELECTION_COLOR - the default selection/highlight color

The following color constants can be used to access the colors from the FLTK standard color cube:

• FL_BLACK
• FL_BLUE
• FL_CYAN
• FL_DARK_BLUE
• FL_DARK_CYAN
• FL_DARK_GREEN
• FL_DARK_MAGENTA
• FL_DARK_RED
• FL_DARK_YELLOW
• FL_GREEN
• FL_MAGENTA
• FL_RED
• FL_WHITE
• FL_YELLOW

The inline methods for getting a grayscale, color cube, or RGB color value are described in Appendix B - Function Reference.

Cursors

The following constants define the mouse cursors that are available in FLTK. The double-headed arrows are bitmaps provided by FLTK on X, the others are provided by system-defined cursors.
