When the mouse is pressed down or the sliders are used the three guidelines emanating from the swatch (one for each type of color deficiency) help you avoid problematic color combinations for that color. Once you select a color puck to move, the conflict guides are activated to guide you into avoiding problematic regions for all types of color blindness. The conflicts are labeled as “potential conflicts” to reflect that someone with a milder deficiency may not experience that same problem.Ĭonflict Guides allow you to understand where problematic color combinations arise directly on the color wheel. Our simulated views show the strongest severity for each deficiency.
The degree of severity of the deficiency will vary from person to person, but the color wheel is designed to target all of them at once.
This allows you to create color palettes with five swatches that are distinct from each other for your entire audience. These highlights which swatches may be indistinguishable to someone with color blindness. Using the accessible color wheel, problematic color combinations are flagged by our conflict lines.
The accessible color wheel reveals issues for all three types of color blindness and below the wheel a simulated view is provided to show how your theme will appear to those affected by each type of color deficiency. However, as you will quickly realize with our tool, this legacy language is an oversimplification of the actual problem, leaving many other potential conflicts traditionally untreated. Deuteranopia and Protanopia are both types of the “red-green” color blindness, while Tritanopia is of the “blue-yellow” kind, with these color pairs referring to the potential conflicts for each kind of viewer.
