I'm trying to create an array of color values. I define the color values as objects: 

    let rgbPalette = [];
    var color1 = {r: 152, g: 52, b: 211, a: 255};
    rgbPalette.push(color1);
    var color2 = {r: 0, g: 0, b: 0, a: 0};
    rgbPalette.push(color2);

    console.log(rgbPalette);

when log the array to the console, i get different property values of the objects:

rgbPalette:  
(2) [{…}, {…}]
0: {r: 151, g: 51, b: 210, a: 255}
1: {r: 0, g: 0, b: 0, a: 8}
length: 2
__proto__: Array(0)

Can anyone help me figure out what is going on here? Thanks.

    Your code does not appear to do what you say it does. Perhaps you left out some important details. – Pointy Feb 23 '20 at 03:17
  • Or all of them. – Dave Newton Feb 23 '20 at 03:20
  • Something must be mutating the object before you examine it in the console. (feel free to post a MCVE so there's something to debug and it could be reopened) – CertainPerformance Feb 23 '20 at 03:20
  • ah OK, so I'm calling this function with an 'await' from another asynchronous function. This is being developed in Electron, so it is using a chromium browser. I think the other issue mentioned by @CertainPerformance is similar to what's happening here. But I need to return this array to the async function, so tricking the console won't be enough. Any ideas? – Harry Teitelman Feb 23 '20 at 03:34
  • update: i see, just adding a print line with JSON.stringify in the parent function reveals that the value is being passed correctly. thanks for your help. – Harry Teitelman Feb 23 '20 at 14:40
