Darken or lighten a color in matplotlib
Say I have a color in Matplotlib. Maybe it\'s a string (\'k\') or an rgb tuple ((0.5, 0.1, 0.8)) or even some hex (#05FA2B). Is there a

A few months ago I had to solve that problem. The idea was for the user to choose a color (any color) and the software automatically generated a colormap (this was part of a package for scientific purposes).
In any case here is the code that I used to achieve it. You won't need most of what the object does but it will give you what you ask:
import math class Color(): def __init__(self, color, fmt='rgb'): self.__initialize__(color, fmt) def __initialize__(self, color, fmt='rgb'): if fmt == 'rgb': self.rgb = (int(color[0]), int(color[1]), int(color[2])) self.hex = self._rgb2hex(self.rgb) self.hsv = self._rgb2hsv(self.rgb) self.rgb0 = self.rgb[0] / 255, self.rgb[1] / 255, self.rgb[2] / 255 elif fmt == 'rgb0': self.rgb = (int(color[0] * 255), int(color[1] * 255), int(color[2] * 255)) self.hex = self._rgb2hex(self.rgb) self.hsv = self._rgb2hsv(self.rgb) self.rgb0 = (color[0], color[1], color[2]) elif fmt == 'hex': self.hex = color self.rgb = self._hex2rgb(self.hex) self.hsv = self._rgb2hsv(self.rgb) self.rgb0 = self.rgb[0] / 255, self.rgb[1] / 255, self.rgb[2] / 255 elif fmt == 'hsv': self.hsv = color self.rgb = self._hsv2rgb(self.hsv) self.hex = self._rgb2hex(self.rgb) self.rgb0 = self.rgb[0] / 255, self.rgb[1] / 255, self.rgb[2] / 255 self.__automaticPalette__() def __automaticPalette__(self): self.rgbColors = [] self.hexColors = [] self.hsvColors = [] self.rgb0Colors = [] hsv = self.hsv for i in range(255): new_hsv = hsv[0], hsv[1], (1 / 255) * i self.rgbColors.append(self._hsv2rgb(new_hsv)) self.hexColors.append(self._rgb2hex(self.rgbColors[-1])) self.hsvColors.append(new_hsv) r, g, b = self.rgbColors[-1] self.rgb0Colors.append((r / 255, g / 255, b / 255)) def _testPalette(self, o=1): from matplotlib import pyplot as plt from matplotlib.patches import Rectangle if o == 1: someX, someY = 0.5, 0.1 plt.figure() s = 1 currentAxis = plt.gca() for x in range(254): currentAxis.add_patch(Rectangle((x * s, someY), s, 0.1, alpha=1, color=self.rgb0Colors[x])) currentAxis.add_patch(Rectangle((5 * s, someY + 0.07), 30, 0.02, alpha=1, color=self.rgb0)) plt.ylim(0.1, 0.2) plt.xlim(0, (x + 1) * s) plt.show() elif o == 2: local = self.rgb0Colors[90:190][0:-1:10] someX, someY = 0.5, 0.1 plt.figure() s = 1 currentAxis = plt.gca() for x in range(len(local)): currentAxis.add_patch(Rectangle((x * s, someY), s, 0.1, alpha=1, color=local[x])) currentAxis.add_patch(Rectangle((5 * s, someY + 0.07), 30, 0.02, alpha=1, color=self.rgb0)) plt.ylim(0.1, 0.2) plt.xlim(0, (x + 1) * s) plt.show() def _hex2rgb(self, value): # http://stackoverflow.com/questions/214359/converting-hex-color-to-rgb-and-vice-versa value = value.lstrip('#') lv = len(value) return tuple(int(value[i:i + int(lv / 3)], 16) for i in range(0, lv, int(lv / 3))) def _rgb2hex(self, rgb): # http://stackoverflow.com/questions/214359/converting-hex-color-to-rgb-and-vice-versa r = rgb[0] g = rgb[1] b = rgb[2] return '#%02X%02X%02X' % (r, g, b) def _hsv2rgb(self, hsv): # http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576919-python-rgb-and-hsv-conversion/ h, s, v = hsv h = float(h) s = float(s) v = float(v) h60 = h / 60.0 h60f = math.floor(h60) hi = int(h60f) % 6 f = h60 - h60f p = v * (1 - s) q = v * (1 - f * s) t = v * (1 - (1 - f) * s) r, g, b = 0, 0, 0 if hi == 0: r, g, b = v, t, p elif hi == 1: r, g, b = q, v, p elif hi == 2: r, g, b = p, v, t elif hi == 3: r, g, b = p, q, v elif hi == 4: r, g, b = t, p, v elif hi == 5: r, g, b = v, p, q r, g, b = int(r * 255), int(g * 255), int(b * 255) return r, g, b def _rgb2hsv(self, rgb): # http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576919-python-rgb-and-hsv-conversion/ r, g, b = rgb r, g, b = r / 255.0, g / 255.0, b / 255.0 mx = max(r, g, b) mn = min(r, g, b) df = mx - mn if mx == mn: h = 0 elif mx == r: h = (60 * ((g - b) / df) + 360) % 360 elif mx == g: h = (60 * ((b - r) / df) + 120) % 360 elif mx == b: h = (60 * ((r - g) / df) + 240) % 360 if mx == 0: s = 0 else: s = df / mx v = mx return h, s, v def getColor(self, fmt='rgb'): if fmt == 'rgb': return self.rgb elif fmt == 'hex': return self.hex elif fmt == 'rgb0': return self.rgb0 elif fmt == 'hsv': return self.hsvSo if you call it like this:

It's custom though, matplotlib was just used to plot it.
EDIT: Just a note to explain how this is achieved. RGB gives you a value for Red, Green and Blue. HSL (HSV) on the other hand gives you hue, saturation, and lightness (value). So if you convert your color from RGB into HSL and than run the whole spectrum of lightness you'll obtain the dark to light values of a color (for example blue will always remain blue, although lighter and darker).

Using only colorsys which is part of the python standard library it is possible to scale the lighntess with just two lines of code
If you still want the option to pass non rgb values like colornames or HEX you can simply use
matplotlib.colors.ColorConverter.to_rgb("#ff0000").This method scales the lightness of an rgb color
import colorsys def scale_lightness(rgb, scale_l): # convert rgb to hls h, l, s = colorsys.rgb_to_hls(*rgb) # manipulate h, l, s values and return as rgb return colorsys.hls_to_rgb(h, min(1, l * scale_l), s = s)A simple demonstration. For more details have a look at the old example.
import matplotlib import seaborn as sns color = matplotlib.colors.ColorConverter.to_rgb("navy") rgbs = [scale_lightness(color, scale) for scale in [0, .5, 1, 1.5, 2]] sns.palplot(rgbs)
Old Answer
There is a Seaborn method, that easily lets you manipulate the lightness.
seaborn.set_hls_values()takes a color as RGB-Tuple, HEX or HTML-name and lets you manipulate the hue, lightness and saturation.The scaled lightness should be between
0and1, where1 < scaleincreases the lightness and0 ≤ scale < 1darkens the color.from colorsys import rgb_to_hls import seaborn as sns color = (1.0, 0.0, 0.0) # RGB print(f"Input color: \t Lightness: {rgb_to_hls(*color)[1]: .2g}\t RGB: {color}") rgbs = [] for scale in [0, .5, 1, 1.5, 2]: # scale the lightness (The values should be between 0 and 1) lightness = min(1, rgb_to_hls(*color)[1] * scale) # manipulate h, l, s channel of a rgb color rgb = sns.set_hls_values(color = color, h = None, l = lightness, s = None) print(f"Scale factor: {scale: .2g}\t Lightness: {lightness: .2g} \t RGB: {rgb}") rgbs.append(rgb) sns.palplot(rgbs)In case you want to use other than RGB codes you need to convert your color to RGB. You could use the following command.
color = "red" # HTML name color = "#ff0000" # HEX color = matplotlib.colors.ColorConverter.to_rgb(color)The returned values are RGB-Tuples:
Input color: Lightness: 0.5 RGB: (1.0, 0.0, 0.0) Scale factor: 0 Lightness: 0 RGB: (0.0, 0.0, 0.0) # Black Scale factor: 0.5 Lightness: 0.25 RGB: (0.5, 0.0, 0.0) Scale factor: 1 Lightness: 0.5 RGB: (1.0, 0.0, 0.0) # Unchanged Scale factor: 1.5 Lightness: 0.75 RGB: (1.0, 0.5, 0.5) Scale factor: 2 Lightness: 1 RGB: (1.0, 1.0, 1.0) # WhiteEDIT:
Thanks @fhgd! I changed the code to actually scale the lightness and not just set it.

Here is a function from my gist to lighten any color that I think will work with any color format known to
matplotlib. I think setting an amount > 1 might darken too.def lighten_color(color, amount=0.5): """ Lightens the given color by multiplying (1-luminosity) by the given amount. Input can be matplotlib color string, hex string, or RGB tuple. Examples: >> lighten_color('g', 0.3) >> lighten_color('#F034A3', 0.6) >> lighten_color((.3,.55,.1), 0.5) """ import matplotlib.colors as mc import colorsys try: c = mc.cnames[color] except: c = color c = colorsys.rgb_to_hls(*mc.to_rgb(c)) return colorsys.hls_to_rgb(c[0], 1 - amount * (1 - c[1]), c[2])EDIT: Indeed, it does darken as well as lighten:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np xs = np.linspace(-1, 1, 100) plt.plot(xs, 0 * xs, color='b', lw=3) plt.plot(xs, xs**2, color=lighten_color('b', 0.4), lw=3) plt.plot(xs, -xs**2, color=lighten_color('b', 1.6), lw=3)Edit 2: Removed un-needed numpy dependency in the function.
Edit 3: Function modified with improvements from @FLekschas
def adjust_lightness(color, amount=0.5): import matplotlib.colors as mc import colorsys try: c = mc.cnames[color] except: c = color c = colorsys.rgb_to_hls(*mc.to_rgb(c)) return colorsys.hls_to_rgb(c[0], max(0, min(1, amount * c[1])), c[2])讨论(0)
