There are two general ways to specify colors in Tkinter.
You can use a string specifying the proportion of red, green, and blue in hexadecimal digits:
#rgb | Four bits per color |
#rrggbb | Eight bits per color |
#rrrgggbbb | Twelve bits per color |
For example, '#fff'
is white, '#000000'
is black, '#000fff000'
is pure green, and '#00ffff'
is pure cyan (green plus blue).
You can also use any locally defined standard
color name. The colors
'white'
,
'black'
,
'red'
,
'green'
,
'blue'
,
'cyan'
,
'yellow'
, and
'magenta'
will always be
available. Other names may work, depending on your
local installation.
