What is HSVA color code?
HSVA color code, an extension of the HSV color model, introduces an Alpha channel, resulting in Hue, Saturation, Value, and Alpha.
- Hue: Defines the color type with values from 0 to 360 degrees.
- Saturation: Indicates color intensity, ranging from 0% (grayscale) to 100% (fully saturated).
- Value: Determines brightness, with 0% as black and 100% as the fully lit color.
- Alpha: Controls transparency, varying from 0 (completely transparent) to 1 (fully opaque).
HSVA color codes are valuable in web design, graphic design, and digital art, enabling precise specification of colors with varying levels of transparency. This extension enhances control over the visual aspects and layering of elements in digital creations.
What is LAB color code?
The LAB color space (specifically CIELAB or CIE L*a*b*) is a color standard defined by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1976. It represents colors with three dimensions: 'L' for lightness (ranging from 0 for black to 100 for white), 'a' for the green-red color component, and 'b' for the blue-yellow color component. Unlike RGB or CMYK, LAB is designed to be device-independent, meaning it defines colors based on human perception rather than how they are produced by a specific screen or printer. This makes it an crucial intermediate space for converting between different color profiles.
