Retrieve one or more colors from the helsana palette, optionally faded.

Usage

hcol(..., fade = NULL)

Arguments

...

character strings naming the colors to retrieve. Valid names are: "blue", "red", "orange", "yellow", "ecru", "green", "pink", "moss", "slate", "sand", "brown", "plum". If none are provided, the full palette is returned.

fade

NULL (default) returns the colors unchanged. A number in \([0, 1]\) returns the opaque tint the color has at this opacity on a white background, see fade(): 1 is the color itself, smaller values are lighter. Recycled over the colors, so hcol("blue", fade = c(1, 0.6, 0.3)) gives three tints of one color.

Value

A named character vector of hex color codes.
