A simple display of two sets of colors, NCSS color contrast class and CIE delta-E00.

colorContrastPlot(
  m1,
  m2,
  col.cex = 1,
  col.font = 2,
  d.cex = 1,
  cc.font = 3,
  dE00.font = 1,
  labels = c("m1", "m2"),
  label.cex = 1,
  label.font = 1,
  printMetrics = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

m1

first set of Munsell colors for comparison (e.g. '5YR 3/2')

m2

second set of Munsell colors for comparison

col.cex

scaling factor for color labels

col.font

font for color labels

d.cex

contrast for contrast metric labels

cc.font

font for contrast class

dE00.font

font for delta-E00

labels

labels for compared colors, vector length 2

label.cex

scaling factor for labels

label.font

font for labels

printMetrics

logical, print metrics between color swatches

...

further arguments to colorspace::swatchplot

Note

This function requires the farver package for calculation of CIE delta-E00.
