Color mixing

The PoCo.app has especially feature which is able to mix color although it only support for 256 colors.

The mixing color feature, say, pure white(#ffffff) blend with pure black(#000000), then gray(#7f7f7f) is derived.

Also, mixing color can blend gray with white or black. So, blending with degree(gradient) is possible.

Therefore, the PoCo.app has ability to draw with gradient although it supports for 256 colors only.

However, mixing of color is limited under 256 colors palete.

If derived color is #7f7f7f but palette dose not contain equivalent color, near color is choosed.


with RGB

When color mixing mode on the palttet window indicate RGB, calculate with RGB(Red, Green and Blue).

Blending is same element of each color, a elememt of red with red, a element of green with green and a element of blue with blue, respectivery.


with HLS

When color mixing mode on the palttet window indicate HLS, calculate with HLS(Hue, Lightness and Saturation).

Bending of hue regard to the hue circle. Lightness is blended with lightness. Also, Saturation is blended with saturation.

Thus, RGB blending can not represent that red blended with green result in yellow. However, with HLS blending, the PoCo.app can calculate based on the light three primary colors.
