i'm making a custom color dialog and i cant seem to find a way to return the selected color.

i need some kind of function like the the one in the standard color dialog(label1.forecolor = StandardColorDialog.SelectedColor)
so any help would be appreciated

This should do

Code: Select all

ColorDialog1.ShowDialog()
        PictureBox1.BackColor = ColorDialog1.Color

i need a function like the "SelectedColor" in the standard color dialog

You can use Color.FromArgb to create your own color values.

Add a property in your custom dialog.

Code: Select all

Public Property SelectedColor As Color

When the user changes his/her choice, update the selected with this code:

Code: Select all

SelectedColor = NewColor

When your dialog closes, you can use

Code: Select all

Form1.BackColor = MyCustomColorDialog.SelectedColor
