A ColorChooserApplet shows six scroll bars that the user can manipulate to set the red, gree, blue, hue, brightness, and saturation components of a color. A color patch shows the selected color, and there are six labels that show the numerical values of all the components. RGB components are specified as integers in the range 0 to 255.
HSB components are specified as float values in the range 0.0F to 1.0F.
