Paul Tol's iridescent Sequential Color Scheme

Description

Paul Tol's iridescent Sequential Color Scheme

Usage

scale_colour_iridescent(
  ...,
  reverse = FALSE,
  range = c(0, 1),
  discrete = FALSE,
  aesthetics = "colour"
)

scale_color_iridescent(
  ...,
  reverse = FALSE,
  range = c(0, 1),
  discrete = FALSE,
  aesthetics = "colour"
)

scale_fill_iridescent(
  ...,
  reverse = FALSE,
  range = c(0, 1),
  discrete = FALSE,
  aesthetics = "fill"
)

scale_edge_colour_iridescent(
  ...,
  reverse = FALSE,
  range = c(0, 1),
  discrete = FALSE,
  aesthetics = "edge_colour"
)

scale_edge_color_iridescent(
  ...,
  reverse = FALSE,
  range = c(0, 1),
  discrete = FALSE,
  aesthetics = "edge_colour"
)

scale_edge_fill_iridescent(
  ...,
  reverse = FALSE,
  range = c(0, 1),
  discrete = FALSE,
  aesthetics = "edge_fill"
)

Arguments

...

Arguments passed to ggplot2::continuous_scale().

reverse

A logical scalar. Should the resulting vector of colors be reversed?

range

A length-two numeric vector specifying the fraction of the scheme's color domain to keep.

discrete

A logical scalar: should the color scheme be used as a discrete scale? If TRUE, it is a departure from Paul Tol's recommendations and likely a very poor use of color.

aesthetics

A character string or vector of character strings listing the name(s) of the aesthetic(s) that this scale works with.

Value

A continuous scale.

Sequential Color Schemes

If more colors than defined are needed from a given scheme, the color coordinates are linearly interpolated to provide a continuous version of the scheme.
