Returns the hue, saturation and brightness values of a color.
hsv_array = GetColorHSV(color c)
| Argument | Contents |
|---|---|
| c | The color whose hue, saturation and brightness values are determined |
An array of three (3) elements: the hue, saturation and brightness values.
| Element | Type | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Real | Hue in color spectrum, from 0 (red) to 359 (violet), or -1 for an achromatic color (e.g. white, gray, black). |
| 2 | Real | Saturation, from 0 (unsaturated, achromatic) to 1 (maximally saturated, pure color). |
| 3 | Real | Brightness value from 0 (dark) to 1 (light), with maximally bright pure red, green and blue colors having a value of 1. |
Pure red with maximum brightness corresponds to (hue = 0, saturation = 1, value = 1). Pure green and pure blue are similar with hues of 120 and 240 respectively.
Pure white corresponds to (hue = -1, saturation = 0, value = 1).
Pure black corresponds to (hue = -1, saturation = 0, value = 0).
