Sending Empty Params, along with a comma delimited value (RGB in this case)

[Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami]

Thanks Ali… I was overthinking this one for sure

this works great:

on mouseUp
   put "255,255,0" into pColor2 # bright yellow
   send "setfillGradient ,,,pColor2,,," to grc colorMeditationBkgnd
end mouseUp

command setFillGradient pStartPosition,pEndPosition,pColor1, pColor2,pAlpha1,pAlpha2
	if pStartPosition is empty then put kDefaultStart into pStartPosition
	if pEndPosition is empty then put kDefaultEnd into pEndPosition
	if pColor1 is empty then put kPureWhite into pColor1
	if pColor2 is empty then put kPureBlack into pColor2
	if pAlpha1 is empty then put kDefaultOpacity into pAlpha1
	if pAlpha2 is empty then put kDefaultOpacity into pAlpha2
	put(pStartPosition & comma & pColor1 & comma & pAlpha1) into tGradientRamp
	put cr &(pEndPosition & comma & pColor2 & comma & pAlpha2) after tGradientRamp
	set the fillgradient["ramp"] of me to  tGradientRamp
end setFillGradient

    Send params are evaluated in the current context, so you can put variable
    names in the list and it will work, eg:
    
    local tRGB
    put "25,25,25" into tRGB
    send "doSomethingWithColor tRGB" to stack "Color Manager"
