Sweeping an LED color from Blue to Red

[Ben]

Nice examples Christian!

Here is yet another way to ramp any color to any color.

Note: If you want additonal collors in between the extremes just include then in the array and adjust you fractional index accordingly.

Ultimately, it does ot really matter how you calculate the color ramp mathematically. Once you are satisfied with the ramp, you would run my VI once, right-click on the color ramp terminal and select "Change to constant". Now delete all code to the left of it. 😉

Nice, compact, fast, and readable code. 😉

BTW: Open your example browser and look for the example named "Create IntGraph Color Table.vi". It has a nice subVI that lets you define a color table interactvely. The code feels a bit stale though ;))

(Ben, you know that I am a sucker for blue wires and integer math. While your solution is very elegant, I object to the orange wires and coercions. It goes from U32->U8_>DBL->U8->U32. 🐵

I love the linear graph representation Altenbach... it took me a second to figure out what it represented... but it puts the details of all those build arrays into perspective...

thanks a ton guys   

I posted links to this thread as comments in my code... in case someone down the road is interested.


EDIT:  Possibilities are endless on where this could be used!!... I get excited just thinking about it.... im such a sucker for the little things.

Christian you are true to form. Bonus points to you for staying in character!

Yes, in LV 8.20 I suspect that VI opened and looked like it was bleeding. Let me know if you can find a color (T is not a color) that break that code.
