Reimplemented one of my all-time favorite interactions in #SwiftUI, the Kubelka-Munk paint blending seen in Paper.
@dlx this is impressive! It was such a neat interaction. I didn’t know it had a name.
@dlx This is awesome. I would pay for this as a stand-alone app!
@dlx that looks awesome, but I’d be afraid it doesn’t work as expected - I think I’d expect it change color when I select a new option on the left (never used Paper, so I’m without that context 🤷‍♂️)
@dlx I feel that needs a bob Ross narration. “a little bit of titanium white...”

@dlx

Oh man, I remember that!

I *LOVED* Paper! (And so many others from the golden era of iOS)

@dlx 😍 beautiful! I’m curious: how did you apply the Kubelka-Munk theory here? Did you use (simplified?) equations to predict the resulting blended color at any moment? PS: I didn’t know about the theory, fascinating!
@dlx A Pantone Fitbit. Neat!
@dlx super neat! How’s the gradient view implemented? Is that a radial gradient or is there more to it?
@terkel conical gradient, nothing fancy 👌
@dlx So very satisfying to simply watch! #UX
@dlx the interactions with that control are so nice!
@dlx oh that is beautiful. Is the project open-source? I'd love to take a look, as I've always struggled with these kinds of graphical gimmicks.
@franchesko alas, it's not but I found this paper by Lindemeier et al. useful https://diglib.eg.org/handle/10.2312/vmv20181263
Painterly Rendering using Limited Paint Color Palettes

@dlx only just saw this (according to mastodon, 647 days later). This is utterly delightful!
