I want to generate exactly same item color like inventory app does. I saw https://community.clover.com/questions/18381/is-there-a-way-to-color-code-the-modifiers.html and understand that clover did it by using an algorithm itself. Can you share it?
I also saw https://community.clover.com/questions/2526/item-colouring.html, but it doesn't seem to be right anymore, that thread has passed 4 years.
item with colors in inventory app:
follow the instruction from this link: https://community.clover.com/questions/2526/item-colouring.html I got this:
the colors are different from inventory app.
my code is something like this: https://onecompiler.com/java/3vp4sbecy
Any help would be appreciate.
I created a small example lib with colors in it here:
https://github.com/farble1670/clover-item-color
As Dan said, this is NOT part of the public Clover API. It is subject to change at any time. This is provided for example purposes only.
Thank you for such a detailed and informative answer! it has really helped me. Yes, I understand that at this time, item color code generation is not a part of Clover API, and it may change whenever Clover Apps update new versions. I hope you will consider to make it as a part of API in the future, I think a lot of developers want this. What a best answer, you save my day!
The color we use is an implementation detail and is subject to change at any point. It could be changed at any time for any reason without any notification/warning.
I poked around a bit and this is what I found, but no guarantees that this is partially/wholly accurate. It may help get you started.

// looks like we may default to Color.argb(255, 100, 100, 100) when we dont have an id to work with
