The controls that accept a color specification, expect it to be a number representing an RGB color value. An RGB color value specifies the relative intensity of red, green, and blue, causing a specific color to be displayed.
This function is used instead of the RGB Function when the corresponding RGB (red, green, blue) values are not remembered. It converts a valid GeneXus color into an RGB value.
