(acad_colordlg color-number [flag])

Display the Select Color dialog box.

This function displays the Color dialog box. This function returns the color number that the user selects from the dialog box or nil when the user clicks the Cancel button.

The function accepts two optional arguments:

Argument	Meaning	Example	Range
color-number	Color Number	1	0 - 256
flag	Flag	nil	nil or true (which is the same as not using the flag)

NOTES

The color-number argument lets you provide a default color. When clrno is 0, the default is BYBLOCK; when clrno is 256, the default is BYLAYER.
When nil, the dialog box disables the BYBLOCK and BYLAYER buttons.

Examples
