I want to know how to define a light gray color with beamer. I am using this color to shade a small block of my text.
Here is the code I am using for defining my colors.
\definecolor{shadecolor}{rgb}{0.01,0.199,0.1}
The current color is giving me a very dark green. I am not sure how to change this to light gray. Can some one help with this ?
Beamer only seems to be accepting values between 0 and 1.
This link does give values for gray but I think it is for some other units. http://www.tayloredmktg.com/rgb/
\definecolor{shadecolor}{rgb}{0.5,0.5,0.5}
or\definecolor{shadecolor}{rgb}{0.8,0.8,0.8}
.\colorlet{shadecolor}{gray!40}
(which means 40%gray and 60% white).
