The value of the alpha channel component

[JsonIgnore]
public readonly byte A

Returns

byte

The value of the alpha channel component

Remarks

The alpha channel represents rendering intent (transparency) rather than color identity. Terminal.Gui does not currently perform alpha blending, but uses this value to determine whether to render the color at all (alpha = 0 means don't render).

When matching colors to standard color names, the alpha channel is ignored. For example, new Color(255, 0, 0, 255) and new Color(255, 0, 0, 128) will both be identified as "Red".
