HSV value

Postby standardtoaster » Sun Sep 20, 2009 4:34 am

In a true HSV value the Hue should go up to 359, the Saturation should go up to 100, and the Value should go up to 100. Why is this not the case in Algodoo?

I need to know this because I was planning on redoing my gradient maker with solid colors instead of transparency. I also wanted to be able to give it the initial starting color, give it the ending color, and then make the gradient based on that, fading from the initial starting color to the ending color. This is crucial information I need to know.

It isn't this in Algodoo because it isn't HSV like it is on the sliders.
The Algodoo colors work by the RGB (Red, Green, Blue) system rather than the HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) system.
Hope I helped :!: :!: :thumbup:

Ok, to get HSV in that value range:
Code: Select all
(color)=>{[(Math.RGB2HSV(color)(0)),(Math.RGB2HSV(color)(1) * 100),(Math.RGB2HSV(color)(2) * 100)]}

Should work (Hue goes up to ~359, Saturation goes up to 1.0 (decimal value) and Value goes up to 1.0 (decimal value) ).

Though, this one doesn't have transparency (using RGB2HSV will take and return opacity if you send it in :)).

If that was the case then then the first three digits would be able to go up to 255.

@Gradyfitz: I'll try it later today. I hope it's what I need.
