I basically grew tired of not being able to specify the exact HEX code for a colour, instead having to resort to the defaults that UIColor offers.
So along with using Hex Color Picker, I came up with a nice little macro that you can slap into a header:
#define UIColorFromRGB(rgbValue) [UIColor \
colorWithRed:((float)((rgbValue & 0xFF0000) >> 16))/255.0 \
green:((float)((rgbValue & 0xFF00) >> 8))/255.0 \
blue:((float)(rgbValue & 0xFF))/255.0 alpha:1.0]
The usage is super easy, I’ll present it alongside how one would currently choose black for say, the background of a UITableView:
The old way:
[self.tableView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor black]];
my awesome new way:
[self.tableView setBackgroundColor:UIColorFromRGB(0x000000)];
And now, we all win. Yay!
