Class HSB

public class HSB
extends Object

Class HSB provides a color represented as floating point hue, saturation, and brightness components.

The hue component gives the basic color. A hue of 0 = red; 1/6 = yellow; 2/6 = green; 3/6 = cyan; 4/6 = blue; 5/6 = magenta; 1 = red again. Intermediate hue values yield intermediate colors.

The saturation component specifies how gray or colored the color is. A saturation of 0 yields fully gray; a saturation of 1 yields fully colored. Intermediate saturation values yield mixtures of gray and colored.

The brightness component specifies how dark or light the color is. A brightness of 0 yields fully dark (black); a brightness of 1 yields fully light (somewhere between white and colored depending on the saturation). Intermediate brightness values yield somewhere between a gray shade and a darkened color (depending on the saturation).

Class HSB includes methods for packing and unpacking a floating point HSB color object into and from an integer. The packed color representation uses 8 bits for each component, with the red component in bits 23-16, the green component in bits 15-8, and the blue component in bits 7-0.

Field Summary

float	bri The brightness component in the range 0.0 through 1.0.
float	hue The hue component in the range 0.0 through 1.0.
float	sat The saturation component in the range 0.0 through 1.0.

Constructor Summary

HSB()
