projplot: Hue projection plot

Description

Produces a 2D projection plot of points in a color space

Usage

projplot(tcsdata, ...)

Arguments

tcsdata

(required) color space coordinates, possibly a result from the tcs function, containing values for the 'h.theta' and 'h.phi' coordinates as columns (labeled as such).

...

additonal parameters to be passed to the plotting of data points.

Value

• projplot creates a 2D plot of color points projected from the tetrahedron to its encapsulating sphere, and is ideal to visualize differences in hue.
