Convert HSB to RGB

[mattscotney]

Hi all,

I can get the hue, saturation and brightness of a color using the following code:

hue = Color.FromArgb(r, g, b).GetHue()
sat = Color.FromArgb(r, g, b).GetSaturation()
bri = Color.FromArgb(r, g, b).GetBrightness()

But how do I convert the hue, saturation and brightness levels back to RGB?

Code would be great, although the mathematical formulas or even just an algorithm and I should be able to work it out.

Thanks in advance,
Matt

Hi Matt,

if you still need it, the easiest way to convert HSB colors to RGB is to use the WINDOWS API Function "ColorHLSToRGB" from "Shlwapi.dll". It is described in the MSDN Help.
