Class ColorTheme

java.lang.Object
  toxi.color.ColorTheme

public class ColorTheme
extends java.lang.Object

A ColorTheme is a weighted collection of ColorRanges used to define custom palettes with a certain balance between individual colors/shades. New theme parts can be added via textual descriptors referring to one of the preset ColorRanges and/or NamedColors: e.g. "warm springgreen". For each theme part a weight has to be specified. The magnitude of the weight value is irrelevant and is only important in relation to the weights of other theme parts. For example: Theme part A with a weight of 0.5 will only have 1/20 of the weight of theme part B with a weight of 5.0...
