Hi there,
I would like to have a custom pad in the color of a given variable. For test purposes I have 2 buttons changing the variable:
button 1 action is -> set_var '$colorfx' red
button 2 action is -> set_var '$colorfx' green
The question is now how to script the color for the pad. I tried this e.g.:
color `get_var '$colorfx'`
or
color "`get_var '$colorfx'`"
But had no luck.
Can you help me with that?

colors don't accept actions as a parameter, so what can you want to do is query the var against a string, if true then you know what color you want to call, if false try another color to query
something like this
*Edit*, actually I was wrong, [maybe not wrong but there's an easier way]
you can do this
something like this
param_equal `get_var $colorfx` "red" ? color red : param_equal `get_var $colorfx` "green" ? color green :

you can do this
get_var $colorfx & param_cast 'text' & color

One more question: How is the second code if I want the color e.g 50%
Thanks!
Thanks!

I think you're out of luck with that, you can only cast one thing at a time, simple color name & brightness are 2 things.
I suppose you could use RGB to make it one thing.
