The list of all known colors is given by `color_list`_. Examples ~~~~~~~~ :: rgb2name(255,128,128) rgb2name([255 215 0]) // get color #10 of the current colormap and find its name cmap=`get`_(`gcf`_(),"color_map"); rgb2name(cmap(10,:)*255) See Also ~~~~~~~~ + `color`_ returns the color id of a color + `color_list`_ list of named colors + `name2rgb`_ returns the RGB values of a named color .. _name2rgb: name2rgb.html .. _color: color.html .. _color_list: color_list.html
