c6
Long
Specifies the numeric variable that is assigned to the sixth color component of the selected color model. Even though the most popular color models use only four levels of color saturations, Corel PHOTO-PAINT can create colors by using seven color channels.

Remarks:
The CreateColorEx method creates a new color (or Color object) containing the specified color information. This color is added to the active palette.
You must specify the color model and components by passing them in a parameter.
Examples:
The following VBA example adds a new color to the active color palette.
Sub CreatePaletteColor()
  ActivePalette.AddColor CreateColorEx(2, 90, 90, 0, 0)
End Sub
