Hi,<br><br>while porting Xournal to Maemo I decided to give it as much hildonization is possible.<br>Base xournal uses only a bunch of predefined colors (something like 9 or 10 colors).<br><br>I decided to use the hildon_color_button widget to give the user a much wide choice of colors.<br>
I get the GdkColor from the color button and have to convert it in RGBA because Xournal only works with those values<br>(passing "fill-color-rgba" to the canvas items). It does this, I think, for being able to make a highlighter tool available in different colors<br>

If I convert this custom color to RGBA with the given macro, it paints in a totally different color.<br><br>Is this some issue with the colormap ?<br>Is GNOME_CANVAS_COLOR_A not good for this ?<br><br>Any other hints ?<br>
