.TH HLSRGB 3NCARG "March 1993" UNIX "NCAR GRAPHICS" .na .nh .SH NAME HLSRGB - Converts a color specification given as Hue, Lightness, and Saturation (HLS) values to Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) intensity values. .SH SYNOPSIS CALL HLSRGB ( H, L, S, R, G, B ) .SH C-BINDING SYNOPSIS #include .sp void c_hlsrgb (float h, float l, float s, float *r, .br float *g, float *b) .SH DESCRIPTION .IP H 12 (REAL, input, range [0.,360.) ) represents the hue of the input color in HLS color space. H=0. corresponds to blue. .IP L 12 (REAL, input, range [0.,100.]) represents the lightness value of the input color in HLS color space. Lightness is a measure of the quantity of light - a lightness of 0. is black, and a lightness of 100. gives white. The pure hues occur at lightness value 50. .IP S 12 (REAL, input, range [0.,100.]) represents the saturation value of the input color in HLS color space. Saturation is a measure of how much white light is mixed with the color. Colors having a saturation value of 0. represent grays with a gray intensity value equal to the lightness L. Colors with a saturation value of 100. are fully saturated colors. The hue is undefined when S=0. The fully saturated pure hues occur when S=100. and L=50. .IP R 12 (REAL, output, range [0.,1.]) represents the red intensity component of the output color in RGB color space. .IP G 12 (REAL, output, range [0.,1.]) represents the green intensity component of the output color in RGB color space. .IP B 12 (REAL, output, range [0.,1.]) represents the blue intensity component of the output color in RGB color space. .SH C-BINDING DESCRIPTION The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions. .SH EXAMPLES Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant examples: ccpcldm, ccplbam, ccpllb, ccplll, ccpllw, colcon, fcce02. .SH ACCESS To use HLSRGB or c_hlsrgb, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in that order. .SH MESSAGES See the colconv man page for a description of all Colconv error messages and/or informational messages. .SH SEE ALSO Online: colconv, hlsrgb, hsvrgb, rgbhls, rgbhsv, rgbyiq, yiqrgb, ncarg_cbind. .sp Hardcopy: NCAR Graphics Fundamentals, UNIX Version .SH COPYRIGHT Copyright (C) 1987-2009 .br University Corporation for Atmospheric Research .br The use of this Software is governed by a License Agreement.
