with a bit of a whimper at the end of a friday night here i have implemented 99% of the API to an unpolished, un-refactored state. I've also assembled a bit of a TODO list so I can go in and start cleaning things up.
Today I added in colorMode() which lets you change between RGB, HSB and HSL. I thought I had it, but since I'm trying to emulate Processing and p5.js I always test against their outcomes and was dismayed to learn that using a html color name in p5.js even in another color mode should always output in RGB. And while this makes complete sense, I kept getting strange color output when rendering "orange" in HSL mode for example. I'm guessing my color juggling is off somewhere because it goes like this:
code:
colormode(HSL)
fill("orange")
square(0,0,100)
behind the scenes:
1. change global color mode state to HSL and max vals for HSLA are 360,100,100,100 default
2. retrieve orange as RGB(A) values. convert that to "orange" in HSL.
3. draw the square in that fill color
..
4. Hmm, yellow appears instead?
The problem exists between 2 and 3 (as well as between my ears).
