Resolved Changing background color for ui toolkit in code

Code (CSharp):

1. itemList.bindItem = (item, index) =>
2. {
3.     item.Q<Label>("itemName").text = allItemData[selectedType][index].name;
4.     Color color = new Color();        
5.     switch(allItemData[selectedType][index].rarity)
6.     {
7.         case Rarity.Type.Common:
8.             color = new Color(230, 220, 220, 1);
9.             break;
10.         case Rarity.Type.Rare:
11.             color = new Color(66, 144, 245, 1);
12.             break;
13.         case Rarity.Type.Epic:
14.             color = new Color(83, 75, 116, 1);
15.             break;
16.         case Rarity.Type.Legend:
17.             color = new Color(161, 95, 34, 1);
18.             break;
19.     }
20.     Debug.Log(color);
21.     item.Q<VisualElement>("background").style.backgroundColor = color; //This always sets color to white
22.     //item.Q<VisualElement>("background").style.backgroundColor = Color.red;  //This works, it makes it red
23. };

Trying to make an editor window to create and edit scriptable objects, everything works fine so far except when trying to change background color for elements in a list, it's always white even tho in debug log it looks like it switched successfully. Is this bugged or am I doing something wrong?

 

You may be using the wrong constructor: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Color-ctor.html

The one you have only accepts values from 0 to 1 in float.

 

yes that was it, thank you!
