Description

\definecolor associates a name with a color, for later use with the \color command.

To use hexadecimal colors in mkii you need to load the proper module first:

\setupcolor[hex]

Then the colors can be specified with

\definecolor[hex-red][h=FF0000]

Regarding the key « a », which means transparency alternative method, there are a certain number of values (actually at least 13, from 0 to 12) whose meanings can be seen from below:

\definetransparency [none]        [0]
\definetransparency [normal]      [1]
\definetransparency [multiply]    [2]
\definetransparency [screen]      [3]
\definetransparency [overlay]     [4]
\definetransparency [softlight]   [5]
\definetransparency [hardlight]   [6]
\definetransparency [colordodge]  [7]
\definetransparency [colorburn]   [8]
