PgCalcColorContrast()

Compute light and dark colors to use for a gradient

Synopsis:

void PgCalcColorContrast( PgColor_t flat_color,
                          int contrast,
                          PgColor_t *light,
                          PgColor_t *dark );

Arguments:

flat_color: The base color towards which the computed colors are intended to converge. It's the color in the middle of the gradient.
contrast: The amount of contrast that you want in the gradient, ranging from 0 (low contrast) through 255 (high contrast). The contrast is biased towards the light color.
light: A pointer to the PgColor_t in which to store the lightest color for the gradient.
dark: A pointer to the PgColor_t in which to store the darkest color for the gradient.

Library:

ph

Description:

This function computes light and dark colors that can be used to construct gradients. It's used by Photon to compute bevel gradients.
