If not provided, values for HSL, HSV and hex triplet are auto-generated from RGB parameters. That means, parameters name, r, g and b are required, the rest is optional and mostly should only be used if the automatic calculation yields rounding errors or fails for other reasons.

The hash sign # for hex triplets, percent % and degree ° symbols must not be entered as they are included automatically.

Code

The {{colort/Color}} template provides the calculation of missing values, the actual table row design is found in {{colort/1row}} and, for the narrow layout, {{colort/2row}}. These sub-templates should never be used directly elsewhere!
