Available colour palettes in INBOtheme

Introduction

This vignette demonstrates the available colour palettes in the INBOtheme package. We show the palette as a plot with numbered rectangles. The number indicates the order in the palette.

Palettes

inbo_palette()

vlaanderen_palette()

traffic_palette()

Note that the traffic_palette() has a variable number of colours. It starts from a dark red colour and changes into a light green colour. Going gradually from dark to light makes this palette readable for colour blind people.

`traffic_palette()` with 9 levels.

traffic_palette() with 9 levels.

`traffic_palette()` with 3 levels.

traffic_palette() with 3 levels.

ordinal_palette()

ordinal_palette() has a variable number of colours. It starts with a dark colour and end with a light colour. Other colours are intermediate colours, resulting in a gradient from dark to light. The colours depend on the active ggplot2 theme.

`ordinal_palette(5)` for `theme_inbo()`.

ordinal_palette(5) for theme_inbo().

`ordinal_palette(5)` with `theme_inbo()`.
