CMYK and RGB Color Palettes in HSL and HEX
Last modified: 2009-05-31 10:12:02 UTC
* HSL (and HEX [3]) color palettes. Example: 100% Red = 1, 50% Red = 0.5 no rounding problem with the HEX model [3]. Example: 100% Red = 255, 50% Red = "127.5" rounded "128".) * The HSV model is not symmetrical to lightness (white) and darkness (black). HSL (or HLS) model (hue, saturation, lightness) [1] * CMYK color palettes Example Color Palette XML File (like sK1 [4]) --------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <palette> <description type="CMYK" name="Red Palette" /> <color c="0" m="1" y="1" k="0" name="Red" /> <color c="0" m="1.5" y="1" k="0" name="Red 2" /> </palette> http://www.mail-archive.com/gimp-developer@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/msg11113.html http://www.mail-archive.com/gimp-developer@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/msg13022.html [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Color_cones.png [3] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal [4] http://sk1project.org/ [5] http://www.uni-bielefeld.de/lili/kumu/farbenlehre-kueppers/en/theorie32.html
Did someone tell you to file this enhancement request? Since I probably would know about it I'm closing this as INVALID just as bug #583908. Don't file this any more please.
Why invalid? The HSV model is not symmetrical. Point.
It is invalid because you didn't follow the process of filing enhancement request. Once this has been properly discussed on the gimp-developer mailing list we can consider reopening this (but we are likely going to ask you to write a new one with better content)
