Color.UserAssign method

Brings up the Color dialog to allow the user to assign a color

Syntax:

Sub UserAssign(Optional ByVal ParentWindowHandle As Long = 0)

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
ParentWindowHandle	Long

Remarks:

The UserAssign method displays the Color dialog box, allowing the user to assign a color. The chosen color is applied to the color object.

A color is an effect applied to an object that alters the object's appearance by the way it reflects light. A color model is a system that defines the number and type of colors that make up an image and that is used to organize and define colors according to a set of basic properties that can be reproduced. Black-and-white, grayscale, RGB, CMYK, and paletted are examples of popular color modes.

Examples:

The following VBA example creates a new color object, then shows the color dialog and prompts the user to select a color. The color is then applied to all of the object fills in the selection.

Sub Test()
  Dim c As New color
  Dim s As Shape
  c.UserAssign
  For Each s In ActiveSelection.Shapes
    s.Fill.ApplyUniformFill c
  Next s
End Sub
