projplot: 2D projection of a tetrahedral colourspace

Description

Produces a 2D projection plot of points in a tetrahedral colour space

Adds points to a tetrahedral colorspace projection

Usage

projplot(tcsdata, ...)
projpoints(tcsdata, ...)

Value

projplot() creates a 2D plot of color points projected from the tetrahedron to its encapsulating sphere, and is ideal to visualize differences in hue.

projpoints() creates points in a projection color space plot produced by projplot().

Arguments

tcsdata

(required) tetrahedral color space coordinates, possibly a result from colspace(), containing values for the 'h.theta' and 'h.phi' coordinates as columns (labeled as such).

...

additional parameters to be passed to the plotting of data points.
