I want set of totally distinct shades of QCOlor around 64

Qt Enthusiast

No I want a algorithm that gives me different set of colors very different something like this

kshegunov

Convert the rectangular RGB space into a spherical one and introduce a metric (if you want), then pick the colors from splitting the unit sphere into a number of parallels and meridians. At least that's what I'd do. The math isn't that complicated you can pull the formulas from wikipedia to try and wrap something up.

Is it possible to provide the code

Qt Enthusiast

some pseudo code of rectangles will be done

Not really, I haven't any code, as I haven't done anything of that sort. It's only an idea you could explore.

what algortimhs generates this

I think its a dictionary.
Make a small test program. there is also a table of hex values to use. ~~sample the color from the bitmap. (same offset so not so complex)~~
Then alter properties (QColor) to fine tune.

Kmeans++ Color Quantization seeding it seems :)

Hi
Using his table, and some ligher() and darker() calls then they seems pretty distinct ;)

Can we generate the table with algorithm ?

mrjj

@Qt-Enthusiast

Hi.
I thinks it s made using color distance algorithm already.
If you mean algorithm to generate all the colors out of nothing, then no.

Qt Enthusiast

Algorithm means code

mrjj

@Qt-Enthusiast

the colors are already code. ?

Qt Enthusiast

Means a pseudo code that generates this table

mrjj

@Qt-Enthusiast
Nope. Not that i have seen.
