draw****undedBox not accepting value. Making a menu that changes color.

So i'm making a derma menu that uses DColorMixer to change the menu's color, the derma menu also uses draw****undedBox but when ever I grab the values from the DColorMixer and input it into the color argument its gives me "attempt to index global 'color' (a nil value)." Im even making sure that it's not a nil value. Heres some proof.

Any help?

function menu()
	local derma = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
		derma:SetSize( 250, 250 );
		derma:SetPos( 500, 500 );
		derma:SetTitle( "Menu Color" );
		derma:SetVisible( true );
		derma:SetDraggable( true );
		derma:ShowCloseButton( true );
		derma:MakePopup()
		
		function derma.Paint()
		draw****undedBox( 2, 0, 1, derma:GetWide(), derma:GetTall(), Color(0,30,0) )
		end
	
	local colorpicker = vgui.Create ( "DColorMixer" )
		colorpicker:SetParent( derma )
		colorpicker:Dock( FILL )
		colorpicker:SetPalette( true )
		colorpicker:SetAlphaBar( true )
		colorpicker:SetWangs( true )
		colorpicker.ValueChanged = function( self, color )
		
		local thecolor = print(color.r, color.g, color.b, color.a)
		
		hook.Add("HUDPaint", "getmodel", function()
		draw.DrawText(color.r.." ".. color.g.. " ".. color.b.. " ".. color.a, "TargetID", ScrW() / 2, ScrH() / 2, Color(255,0,0), TEXT_ALIGN_CENTER)
		end)
		
	end
end

any ideas?

but when I do input it, it tells me the color is a nil value.

use this it changes colors Color(CurTime()*30 % 240, CurTime()*30 % 248, CurTime()*30 % 255)
im sorry but i thought you ment you want the menu to change color by itself

that's pretty cool but I want it to use the DColorMixer to change colors instead of changing colors randomly.

yup well im gonna work on JumpMan.lua
