\section{\class{wxColour}}\label{wxcolour}
A colour is an object representing a combination of Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) intensity values,
Valid RGB values are in the range 0 to 255.
+You can retrieve the current system colour settings with \helpref{wxSystemSettings}{wxsystemsettings}.

-Constructs a colour from red, green and blue values.
+Constructs a colour from red, green, blue and alpha values.
\func{}{wxColour}{\param{const wxString\& }{colourNname}}
-Constructs a colour object using a colour name
-listed in {\bf wxTheColourDatabase}.
+Constructs a colour using the given string. See \helpref{Set}{wxcolourset} for more info.
\func{}{wxColour}{\param{const wxColour\&}{ colour}}
\docparam{blue}{The blue value.}
+\docparam{alpha}{The alpha value. Alpha values range from 0 (wxALPHA\_TRANSPARENT) to 255 (wxALPHA\_OPAQUE).}

+
+\membersection{wxColour::Alpha}\label{wxcolouralpha}
+
+\constfunc{unsigned char}{Alpha}{\void}
+
+Returns the alpha value, on platforms where alpha is not yet supported, this always returns wxALPHA\_OPAQUE.
+
+
\membersection{wxColour::Blue}\label{wxcolourblue}
\constfunc{unsigned char}{Blue}{\void}
Returns the blue intensity.
+
+\membersection{wxColour::GetAsString}\label{wxcolourgetasstring}
+
+\constfunc{wxString}{GetAsString}{\param{long}{ flags}}
+
+Converts this colour to a \helpref{wxString}{wxstring}
+using the given {\it flags}.
+
+The supported flags are {\bf wxC2S\_NAME}, to obtain the colour
+name (e.g. wxColour(255,0,0) -> \texttt{``red"}), {\bf wxC2S\_CSS\_SYNTAX}, to obtain
+the colour in the \texttt{``rgb(r,g,b)"} syntax
+(e.g. wxColour(255,0,0) -> \texttt{``rgb(255,0,0)"}), and {\bf wxC2S\_HTML\_SYNTAX}, to obtain
+the colour as \texttt{``\#"} followed by 6 hexadecimal digits
+(e.g. wxColour(255,0,0) -> \texttt{``\#FF0000"}).
+
+This function never fails and always returns a non-empty string.

\membersection{wxColour::GetPixel}\label{wxcolourgetpixel}
\constfunc{long}{GetPixel}{\void}
-1 is returned if the pixel is invalid (on X, unallocated).
+
\membersection{wxColour::Green}\label{wxcolourgreen}
\constfunc{unsigned char}{Green}{\void}
Returns the green intensity.
-\membersection{wxColour::Ok}\label{wxcolourok}
-\constfunc{bool}{Ok}{\void}
+\membersection{wxColour::IsOk}\label{wxcolourisok}
+
+\constfunc{bool}{IsOk}{\void}

+Returns \true if the colour object is valid (the colour has been initialised with RGB values).
-Returns TRUE if the colour object is valid (the colour has been initialised with RGB values).
\membersection{wxColour::Red}\label{wxcolourred}
Returns the red intensity.

+
+\func{void}{Set}{\param{unsigned long}{ RGB}}
+
+\func{bool}{Set}{\param{const wxString \&}{ str}}
+
+Sets the RGB intensity values using the given values (first overload), extracting them from the packed long (second overload), using the given string (third overloard).
+
+When using third form, Set() accepts: colour names (those listed in \helpref{wxTheColourDatabase}{wxcolourdatabase}), the CSS-like \texttt{``RGB(r,g,b)"} syntax (case insensitive) and the HTML-like syntax (i.e. \texttt{``\#"} followed by 6 hexadecimal digits for red, green, blue components).
+
+Returns \true if the conversion was successful, \false otherwise.
