So you are using the Get Pixel Color command, is that right? There is no HEX variable in MEP, so Integer is the only option for saving the pixel color.

 

Though, I can certainly see an opportunity for a feature request ( http://macros.com/requestfeature.htm ) allowing the user to select a Text variable to save the Hexadecimal color, as opposed to using the Integer variable default.

I guess I am not being specific enough. When you open the mouse locator and move over a pixel it returns 2 numbers 14851196 (decimal) and 0x7C9CE2 (HEX). This is the blue color in the mouse locator window.

Using the get pixel color at specific location command to a variable. Then the if variable equals this value can be entered into MEP as 0x7C9CE2 for a test. If you use display text box to look at the value of that variable the text box will print 14851196. I just prefer to use hex values as they are shorter. There is probably no way to have a text box display a value as hex. But since MEP started using hex for input I assumed it should display it as well

Please clarify what you are doing with the hex numbers. I didn't know you could do hex calculations in MEP?

Not trying to do anything with the number except display it in a text box from a variable.

In the mouse locator color of a pixel is shown in both hex and decimal. I prefer to us the hex version,

when a variable is displayed in a text box it is in decimal and harder to remember.

I recently upgraded to Macroexpress pro and was very excited to be able to use hex numbers as 0x4F56FF. However, I can not find how to display a variable in a text box in hex. I have searched the help files and there is no info to be found. Is this possible??

Thanks
