//This example outputs Sliders that control the red green and blue elements of a sprite's color
//Attach this to a GameObject and attach a SpriteRenderer component

using UnityEngine;

public class Example : MonoBehaviour

    SpriteRenderer m_SpriteRenderer;
    //The Color to be assigned to the Renderer’s Material
    Color m_NewColor;

    //These are the values that the Color Sliders return
    float m_Red, m_Blue, m_Green;

        //Use the Label to identify the Slider
