In Lua: How to write a HEX value to an app that expects a HEX value?

I have an app UI that expects a HEX value e.g. foo = 0x113

I'm doing this in Lua to try to write to foo:

menu.set("Presets", "foo", "0x318")
menu.set("Presets", "888x", "-258")
menu.set("Presets", "89ab", "-60"

The values for 888x and 89ab in the app are set. The HEX value field remains empty. Could someone help please? Thanks.

There is no such thing as an hex value. There are numbers expressed in hex.

So your API expects a number. No wonder "0x318" does not work. The other two work because the strings are convertible to numbers.

Bottom line: use menu.set("Presets", "foo", 0x318).
