\item distinct from each other as much as possible, and
|
||||
\item distinct from black and white,
|
||||
\item under many different lighting and display environments, and
|
||||
\item to color-blind viewers,
|

\item all while matching well together.
|

\end{itemize}
|
||||
\themename comes with a set of pre-defined pgfplots styles and a color theme
|
||||
based on Paul Tol's color scheme.
|

|
||||
|
||||
\subsection{Styles}
|
||||
|
||||
Pass the following style keys to the axis environment to get the appropriate
|
||||
effect:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{macro}{mlineplot}
|
||||
Plot regular line charts with reduced axis frames, less intrusive legend and
|
||||
subdued grid.
|
||||
\end{macro}
|
||||
\begin{macro}{mbarplot}
|
||||
Plot vertical bar charts in a similar way as |mlineplot| but reduce grid usage.
|
||||
\end{macro}
|
||||
\begin{macro}{horizontal mbarplot}
|
||||
Plot horizontal bar charts.
|
||||
\end{macro}
|
||||
\begin{macro}{disable thousands separator}
|
||||
Helper style to remove thousands separator.
|
||||
\end{macro}
|
||||

||||

\subsection{Paul Tol colors}
|
||||
|
||||
A good presentation uses colors that are distinct from each other as much as
|
||||
possible as well as from black and white, can be discerned item under different
|
||||
lighting and display environments and by color-blind viewers, while matching
|
||||
well together.
|
||||
|
||||
In a \href{https://personal.sron.nl/~pault/colourschemes.pdf}{technical note}
|
||||
for SRON, Paul Tol proposed a palette of colors satisfying these constraints.
|
||||
The sub-package |pgfplotsthemetol| defines palettes for |pgfplots| charts
|
||||
based on Tol's work. Use the |mlineplot| key to plot line data and |mbarplot|
|
||||
or horizontal |mbarplot| to plot bar charts.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
based on Tol's work.
