My first attempt at gradient work; it's more obvious in some places in the spectrum than in others. Copy with credit.

    If only we were allowed to use Lua to generate this type of stuff...

    RaconTPT: Correct; we don't have violet cone cells, but violet is mostly close to blue and jsut a little close to red. But why are there 4 peaks in the linked image when we only have 3 kinds of cones; red, green, and blue?

    Onestay: Turns out that we do actually see a bit of red in real violet, because of a quirk of human eyes. (red cone cell)

    I misspelled 'combination'

    The cobination of significant bits I used to make violet FILT was the best violet result I got in my attempts to make violet. I couldn't fit all the words in the previous comment.

    Oh now I understand; they were talking about bits. But that "yellow" bit is actually part of the red spectrum; it just looks yellow for whatetever reason, it's the same story with the cyan-looking bit at the end of blue spectrum.

    The actual explanation of yellow bit in violet: id:3070783

    Or that's just totally wrong and I'm just overthinking it

    Oh, I think I know what they mean. When you press 'h' and hover over the violet part there does appear to be a "yellow strip" in the BIZS in the diagram at the top right corner, but I don't really see what's the big deal
