Color Letters to define in plotting
Show older comments
Hi
There are some letters used for colors in matlab like
- b: blue. g: green. r: red. c: cyan. m: magenta. y: yellow. k: black. w: white.
there are many other colors (mix) like sky blue, Orange, or any combination? I just want to use in a command like plot(Z,'color')

Predifined Color
figure,plot(1:10,'Color','red')
User defined Color
figure,plot(1:10,'Color',[r g b])
where r, g an b are rgb content of color (normalized or percentage of color). For example

The Rgb value of my selected color is [71 72 133] and i ve to normalize it by max value and max value of color is 255 or 256 so divide it by 256.
rgb = [71 72 133]/256;
figure,plot(1:10,'Color',rgb,'LineWidth',10)
