Courses Plus Student 32,914 PointsI can't seem to add a new color. There seems to be something wrong with my "$newcolor.css" method.
I can't seem to add another color to the list, but there seems to something wrong with my method...
Here's the code: https://w.trhou.se/0inadcwumh
//Problem: No user interaction causes no change to application
//Solution: When user interacts cause changes appropriately
var color = $(".selected").css("background-color");
//1. When clicking on control list items
$(".controls").on("click", "li", function()
{
//Deselect sibling elements
$(this).siblings().removeClass("selected");
//Select clicked element
$(this).addClass("selected");
//Cache current color
color = $(this).css("background-color");
});
//2. When add color is pressed
$("#revealColorSelect").click(function(){
changeColor();
$("#colorSelect").toggle();
});
//Show color select or hide select
function changeColor()
{
var r = $("#red").val();
var g = $("#green").val();
var b = $("#blue").val();
$("#newColor").css("background-color", "rgb(" + r + "," + g + "," + b + ")");
}
//3.When color sliders change
$("input[type=range]").change(changeColor);
//update the new color
//4. When add color is pressed
$("#addNewColor").click(function(){
var $newColor = ("<li></li>");
$newColor.css("background-color", $("#newColor").css("background-color"));
$(".controls ul").append($newColor);
$newColor.click();
});
//Append the color is pressed ul
//Select the new color
//5. On mouse events on the canvas
//Draw Lines

var $newColor = $("<li></li>");
