Argument |
Contents |
|
hue |
Hue in color spectrum, from 0 (red) to 359 (violet), or -1 for an achromatic color (e.g. white, gray, black) |
|
lightness |
Lightness value from 0 (lightest, white) to 1 (darkest, black), with 0.5 being the value for maximally bright pure red, green or blue colors |
|
saturation |
Saturation, from 0 (unsaturated, achromatic) to 1 (maximally saturated, pure color) |
A color (red, green, blue, and alpha).
Pure red with maximum brightness corresponds to (hue = 0, lightness = 0.5, saturation = 1). Pure green and pure blue are similar with hues of 120 and 240 respectively.
Pure white corresponds to (hue = -1, lightness = 0, saturation = 0).
Pure black corresponds to (hue = -1, lightness = 1, saturation = 0).
Opacity can also be set with the alpha selector on a color; for more information, see Compound Variables.
