  Re: Opinions needed for Color and Edge Values
 
(...) The intensity of a colour is usually given by I = 0.299R + 0.587G + 0.114B so your cutoff should be based on that rather than a simple mean. Tim (16 years ago, 20-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Opinions needed for Color and Edge Values
 
(...) Hmmm ... where do these values come from? I changed the edge line using this calculation and used a 50% Gray for the lighter edge and pitch black for a dark edge (applied only to the first row, the rest is still #1F1F1F). IMHO it looks AWFUL (...) (16 years ago, 21-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Opinions needed for Color and Edge Values
 
(...) Yeah I agree that Gray and Dark_Gray only work on the very darkest of colors like Black or Dark_Brown. Unless someone wants to spend a lot of time customizing an edge for each color, I'd recommend setting a dividing break point at which to (...) (16 years ago, 21-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Opinions needed for Color and Edge Values
 
(...) If you use the above mentioned calculation, you get a color value that represents a gray color with the same brightness than the color itself. I also feel that the 50% value (127) is not a good value. It should be maybe at 40, if we do use a (...) (16 years ago, 21-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Opinions needed for Color and Edge Values
 
(...) SNIP (...) I just found an old thread thread that has also no solution to the question of the edge colors. (URL) I believe we have to found one now. I have found also other threads regarding this issue and I try to sum up: 1) Black is the (...) (16 years ago, 21-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Opinions needed for Color and Edge Values
 
(...) I like this proposal but I'd like to run a test file using the 52 threshold and try also different shades of gray first before diving into more detail. w. (16 years ago, 22-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I set up a new LDConfig.ldr file in sync with the above. Check it out at the wiki: (URL) (16 years ago, 23-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Opinions needed for Color and Edge Values  [DAT]
 
(...) Hi Willy, Why so many colors defined in present ldconfig.ldr ((URL) are missing from your chart? Otherwise, I had a look at the defined colors (LDraw, 0 to 28), imho there is not enough contrast for brown (6) and Violet (22). These colors (...) (16 years ago, 24-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Opinions needed for Color and Edge Values
 
(...) Are we sure about the RGB values for the transparent colours? They look awfully washed-out to me :-( TrDkBlue in particular looks more like TrLtBlue. Alex (16 years ago, 9-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Opinions needed for Color and Edge Values
 
(...) Good timing on your response. We are going through the transparent colors now. I also agree that the transparent colors look washed out. I believe that the RGB values are how they would appear on a white background, but they do not render well (...) (16 years ago, 9-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
