Understanding Color Spaces
A visual guide to the digital color spaces supported by our Pixel Inspector
HEX (Hexadecimal)
Standard web-design color representation. Uses a six-digit base-16 number where every two characters denote the intensity of Red, Green, and Blue light values (from 00 to FF).
RGB (Red, Green, Blue)
Additive color space utilized by monitors and digital screens. Blends red, green, and blue light channels inside each screen sub-pixel (intensities ranging from 0 to 255).
HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness)
Intuitive, human-centric color model. **Hue** defines color angle on the color wheel (0°-360°), **Saturation** represents purity percentage, and **Lightness** defines brightness percentage.
CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key)
Subtractive printing system model. Combines Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (Black) inks to absorb light reflected from paper, standard in desktop publishing and bulk industrial printing.
