  I would like to have a bearing on the alpha value. So I changed the method. With that I can use the following syntax:myObject.Foreground = ParseColor(“#AAFF0000″);Here is the changed method:public static Color ParseColor(string value) {    value = value.Replace(“#”, “”);    Int32 v = Int32.Parse(value, System.Globalization.NumberStyles.HexNumber);    return new Color() {        A = Convert.ToByte((v >> 32) & 255),        R = Convert.ToByte((v >> 16) & 255),        G = Convert.ToByte((v >> & 255),        B = Convert.ToByte((v >> 0) & 255),     };}
