Re: When is (NSColor) black not black?

I'm not sure if I'm doing a compare wrong, but if I set my color wheel to black (10.3.9, using the "named" colors/3 section from left of color wheel), it doesn't seem to compare correctly:


if ([[colorWheel color] isEqual:[NSColor blackColor]])

  doSomething;  <--- never equals


Is there something further I need to do?



Colors have color spaces, so two colors that appear to be the same on the screen may not compare as equal if they have different color spaces.  In general the notion of equality between colors is not a simple one; you need to decide what sort of equality you are interested in for this particular test.
