Hi,
In Section 15.2 of the manual it says (under the "For plain TeX users"
paragraph)
Only the two color models gray and rgb are supported.
In .../texmf-dist/tex/generic/pgf/utilities/pgfutil-plain.def it
defines the macros
\pgfutil at emu@rgb#1#2,#3,#4\@nil
and
\pgfutil at emu@gray#1#2,#3,#4\@nil
I have used the following to implement the RGB model:
\def\pgfutil at emu@RGB#1#2,#3,#4\@nil
{
\pgfmathsetmacro{\@red@}{#2/255}%
\pgfmathsetmacro{\@green@}{#3/255}%
\pgfmathsetmacro{\@blue@}{#4/255}%
\expandafter\edef\csname\string\color@#1\endcsname
{\noexpand\xcolor@ {}{}{rgb}{\@red@,\@green@,\@blue@}}
}
and it works in all the cases I have tried.
Is there any chance of having this code (or better, but equivalent code)
added to pgfutil-plain.def, and the note in Section 15.2 of the manual
updated?
Thanks.
Jim
