Re: [R] venneuler (java?) color palette 0 - 1

2010-10-11 Thread Karl Brand

Hi Paul,

That's pretty much awesome. Thank you very much.

And combined with the colorspace package functions- rainbow_hcl() and 
sequential_hcl() -make color selection easy. One thing i was digging for 
was a function that yields a color palette *and* the hcl() call needed 
to produce it. This would help me better understand the hcl format. So 
where i can get the RGB codes like this-


 rainbow_hcl(4)
[1] #E495A5 #ABB065 #39BEB1 #ACA4E2


- which is fine for color specification, is there a palette function 
that might help obtain the hcl() call needed to produce a given palette? 
ie., the 'h', 'c' and 'l' (and 'alpha' if appropriate) values for a 
given color/shade??


Thanks again and in advance for any further pointers,

Karl

The relevant par of ?venneuler states:

colors: colors of the circles as values between 0 and 1

-which explains color specification, but from what pallette? Short of
trial and error, i'd really appreciate if some one could help me locate
a 0 - 1 pallette for this function to aid with color selection.


The color spec stored in the VennDiagram object is multiplied by 360 to
give the hue component of an hcl() colour specification. For example,
0.5 would mean the colour hcl(0.5*360, 130, 60)

Alternatively, you can control the colours when you call plot, for
example, ...

plot(ve, col=c(red, green, blue))

... should work.

FWIW, i tried the below code and received the displayed error. I failed
to turn up any solutions to this error...

Any suggestions appreciated,

Karl

ve- venneuler(c(A=1, B=2, C=3, AC=0.5, ABC=0.1))

class(ve)
[1] VennDiagram

ve$colors- c(red, green, blue)

plot(ve)

The ideas underlying rainbow_hcl(), sequential_hcl(), and diverge_hcl() 
are described in the following paper


  Achim Zeileis, Kurt Hornik, Paul Murrell (2009).
  Escaping RGBland: Selecting Colors for Statistical Graphics.
  Computational Statistics  Data Analysis, 53(9), 3259-3270.
  doi:10.1016/j.csda.2008.11.033

A preprint PDF version of it is also available for download on my webpage.

In the paper you see how the HCL coordinates for the different palettes 
are constructed. The functions rainbow_hcl(), sequential_hcl(), and 
diverge_hcl() are all direct translations of this, consisting just of a 
few lines of code.


What may be somewhat confusing is that the functions call
  hex(polarLUV(L, C, H, ...))
instead of
  hcl(H, C, L, ...)
which may yield slightly different results. The reason for this is that 
the polarLUV() implementation in colorspace predates the base R 
implementation in hcl().

Thanks again and in advance for any further pointers,
