I don't see that much black in Cinema 4D, that's why it seems like a bug to me.

with EX_COLOR or COLOR) for which c4d.GetViewColor does not return Vector(0) and some, where it does.
This is the code I used to figure out all constants.
import c4d mode = "good" # or "bad" if mode == "bad": def compare(x) : return x == c4d.Vector(0) elif mode == "good": def compare(x) : return x != c4d.Vector(0) for e in dir(c4d) : if e.startswith("COLOR") or e.startswith("EX_COLOR") : v = getattr(c4d, e, None) if v is not None: v = c4d.GetViewColor(v) if compare(v) : print eAlso, c4d.SetViewColor doesn't seem to work, too.
PS: @Maxon support: There are many bug-reports that are not replied, something like "Checked", "On our list!" or "Just fixed this issue" would be nice.

The constants for GetViewColor start with VIEWCOLOR_ not COLOR_. This note will be added to the docs.
Btw, constants which start with EX_ are outdated and will not work. //closed -

Is it possible to get the color value of the constant colors? I want to use the "General - Text"-Color in a treeview

Nevermind just found the GetColorRGB. And sorry didn't realize that this is located in the bug reports.
