SBPaletteDivergingHCL#

This class is a base class for diverging HCL (Hue-Chroma-Luminance) color palettes.

A diverging palette is constructed in a 3D color coordinate space with coordinates named hue, chroma, and luminance.

The diverging palette can be represented as two sequential palettes: one to the left (left arm) and another one to the right (right arm) from the diverging point (neutral point, neutralPoint).

The value for hue is constant for both arms:

  • hue1 for the left arm (the intensity value less or equal than neutralPoint);

  • hue2 for the right arm (the intensity value greater than neutralPoint).

In each arm, the chroma value changes from chroma1 to 0.0 through maximumChroma (if present and if maximumChroma > chroma1) in the same way as in the sequential palette (samson.SBPaletteSequentialHCL).

In each arm, the luminance value changes from luminance1 to luminance2 as in the sequential palette (samson.SBPaletteSequentialHCL).

Example of a diverging HCL palette#
# Diverging: Blue-Red
palette = SBPaletteDivergingHCL(
  hue1 = 260, hue2 = 0,
  chroma1 = 80, maximumChroma = 80,
  luminance1 = 30, luminance2 = 90,
  chromaPower = 1.0,
  luminancePower = 1.5,
  neutralPoint = 0.5,
  name = "Diverging: Blue-Red")
