Selenized color palette (discrete)

Source: R/selenized.R
selenized_pal.Rd

Qualitative color palette from the accent colors of Jan Warchoł's Selenized color scheme, https://github.com/jan-warchol/selenized. Each variant has its own eight accent colors, balanced in lightness against that variant's background, so use the same variant here as in theme_selenized(). This palette supports up to eight values.

Usage

selenized_pal(accent = "blue", variant = "light")

Arguments

accent

A string, the name of the starting color: one of "red", "green", "yellow", "blue", "magenta", "cyan", "orange" or "violet".

variant

A string, the Selenized variant: "light", "dark", "black" or "white".

Value

A palette function. It takes the number of colors n and returns a character vector of n hex colors, and can be used as the palette argument of ggplot2::discrete_scale().

Note

For a given starting color and number of colors in the palette, the other colors are the combination of colors that maximizes the total Euclidean distance between colors in Lab space, as in solarized_pal().
