@@ -21,12 +21,12 @@ Colors are stored as tuples by default. However, you can also use int hex syntax
2121
to set values similar to colors on the web. For example, ``0x100000`` (``#100000``
2222
on the web) is equivalent to ``(0x10, 0, 0)``.

If you send a tuple with 4 values, you can control the brightness value, which appears in DotStar but not NeoPixels.

It should be a float. For example, (0xFF,0,0, 1.0) is the brightest red possible, (1,0,0,0.01) is the dimmest red possible.

.. note:: The int hex API represents the brightness of the white pixel when

present by setting the RGB channels to identical values. For example, full
26-
white is 0xffffff but is actually (0, 0, 0, 0xff) in the tuple syntax. Setting
27-
a pixel value with an int will use the white pixel if the RGB channels are
28-
identical. For full, independent, control of each color component use the
29-
tuple syntax.

white is 0xffffff but is actually (0xff, 0xff, 0xff) in the tuple syntax.
