Colors are represented in LabVIEW by an unsigned 32-bit integer. The integer is of the hexadecimal form 0x00RRGGBB, where RR, GG, and BB represent the red, green, and blue components of the color, respectively.

Special cases

LabVIEW uses the upper byte (00) for special colors, normally this byte is used for transparency so using these color values in a different program might give odd results. The following colors are available

System Color

LabVIEW supports six system colors, they match on Windows different color types:
