Syntax

The command simply takes a stata color name and returns the values for RGB, CMYK, and HSV as rclass macros.

Example

Say, you want to obtain the RGB code of a Stata color e.g. bluishgray:

. colorcode bluishgray

rgb  217 230 235
hsv  197 .08 .92
cmyk 18 5 0 20

. return list

macros:
                r(rgb) : "217 230 235"
                r(hsv) : "197 .08 .92"
               r(cmyk) : "18 5 0 20"
