set custom color in strategy

[Blackburn]

Hallo,

i want to set custom colors in my strategy like this:

BarColor = "106, 142, 236";
CandleOutlineColor = Color.CornflowerBlue;
BackColor = Color.MidnightBlue;

but i can´t compile this. I get this message:

An implicit conversion from type "string ", "System.Drawing.Color"is not possible.

Do you have any ideas?
Thx Blackburn

Hello Blackburn,

Thank you for your post.

The compile errors are likely coming from the RBG string you are using.

If you would like to use custom RBG colors, please use the Color.FromArgb() method:

BarColor =  Color.FromArgb(106, 142, 236);
