Let’s explore how the SETCOLOR command accomplishes this using Atari Graphics 1
. First take a look a simple diagram below that analyzes the command.
SETCOLOR (register), (hue), (luminance)
This is defined as:
register – can use values from 0-4 which extract from memory locations to manage the foreground, background, and border color.
hue – can use values from 0-15 to set a specific color (see below)
luminance – can use a value from 0-14, which controls the intensity of the brightness display. 0 = darkest, 14Â = brightest.
