p5.js version

2.2.3 (beta)

Web browser and version

Chrome 148.0.7778.179

Operating system

macOS 26.5

Steps to reproduce this

Color string representation is incorrect and causes issues if original color values are reassigned.

The color strings are transparent (with alpha set to 00), but the default alpha should be at the max (FF).

Somehow this is a problem if I reset fill:

fill(p5.instance._renderer.states.fillColor);

The fill becomes transparent.

I'd like to be able to reset the fill in q5play without running a performance costly push/pop.
