Hue
Hue[h]
is a graphics directive which specifies that objects which follow are to be displayed, if possible, in a color corresponding to hue h.
Hue[h, s, b]
specifies colors in terms of hue, saturation, and brightness.
Hue[h, s, b, a]
specifies opacity a.
DetailsDetails
- The parameters h, s, b, and a must all be between
and
. Values of s, b, and a outside this range are clipped. Values of h outside this range are treated cyclically. » - As h varies from
to
, the color corresponding to Hue[h] runs through red, yellow, green, cyan, blue, magenta, and back to red again. » - Hue[h] is equivalent to Hue[h, 1, 1]. »
- The alternative forms Hue[{h, s, b}] and Hue[{h, s, b, a}] can also be used. »
- On monochrome output devices, a gray level based on the brightness value is used.
- For 3D surfaces, explicit Hue directives define surface colors; the final shading depends on lighting.
- Glow[Hue[...]] specifies color independent of lighting. »
- In Hue[h, s, b, a], a is an "alpha channel" used to specify opacity.
- Hue[h, s, b, a] is equivalent to {Hue[h, s, b], Opacity[a]}. »
- If no opacity has been specified, Hue[h, s, b] is equivalent to Hue[h, s, b, 1].
- Style[expr, Hue[...]] specifies that expr should be displayed with the specified color. »
