Remarks

The following example shows how to display a ColorPalette with three simple colors. You would get m_app from the hook in ICommand::OnCreate().

[C#]

ISet colorSet = new SetClass();
IColor color = new RgbColorClass();
color.RGB = 255; //Red
colorSet.Add(color);
color = new RgbColorClass();
color.RGB = 65535; //Yellow
colorSet.Add(color);
color = new RgbColorClass();
color.RGB = 65280; //Green
colorSet.Add(color);

ICustomColorPalette customColorPalette = new ColorPaletteClass();
customColorPalette.ColorSet = colorSet;
IColorPalette colorPalette = customColorPalette as IColorPalette;
tagRECT tagRect = new tagRECT();
tagRect.left = 100;
tagRect.right = 500;
tagRect.bottom = 100;
tagRect.top = 500;
colorPalette.TrackPopupMenu(ref tagRect, color, false, m_app.hWnd);

[Visual Basic .NET]

Dim colorSet As ISet = New SetClass()
Dim color As IColor = New RgbColorClass()
color.RGB = 255
'Red
colorSet.Add(color)
color = New RgbColorClass()
color.RGB = 65535
'Yellow
colorSet.Add(color)
color = New RgbColorClass()
color.RGB = 65280
'Green
colorSet.Add(color)

Dim customColorPalette As ICustomColorPalette = New ColorPaletteClass()
customColorPalette.ColorSet = colorSet
Dim colorPalette As IColorPalette = TryCast(customColorPalette, IColorPalette)
Dim tagRect As New tagRECT()
tagRect.left = 100
tagRect.right = 500
tagRect.bottom = 100
tagRect.top = 500
colorPalette.TrackPopupMenu(tagRect, color, False, m_app.hWnd)
