Hi, why is this happening?

In this graphic, the graphic editor indicates that this green is the RGB value 0, 85, 0

If I put that value in the graphic effect "SetColor" I get a different green, in this image you can see.

I haven't checked, but I'm guessing one is based on 0 to 100, and the other 0 to 255.

Ok, that's right, the "SetColor" effect supports values from 0 to 100.

Thanks.

How is an RGB value supposed to be converted to this "SetColor" format?

value/256 * 100

For your RGB value of 0,85,0 it would be 85/256 * 100 ≈ 33 for green.
