As with incoloring +modes, the value of the latest orbit can be used to determine the color of each +pixel, but the default is to use the number of iterations needed for the value +at that point to become recognisably divergent as the color. + +The :tutor:`tutorial on outcoloring <outcolor.xaf>` has more information +and examples. + +The cryptic names of the modes are mathematical formulae, where **iter** means +the number of iterations required for the value to become recognisably +divergent, **real** means the real part of the latest orbit, and **imag** means +the imaginary part. **binary decomposition** uses a different color when the +imaginary part of the orbit is lower than zero, and **smooth** attempts to +remove stripes and discontinuities. Also, :ref:`truecolor <tcolor>` outcoloring +modes are available, that display one value in each of the red, blue and green +color planes (or, for some modes, in each of the hue, saturation and value +planes). + +In the scripting language, the outcoloring mode is specified by one of the +following integers: + +0 + + iter (default) + +1 + + iter+real + +2 + + iter+imag + +3 + + iter+real/imag + +4 + + iter+real+imag+real/imag + +5 + + binary decomposition + +6 + + biomorphs + +7 + + potential + +8 + + color decomposition + +9 + + smooth + +10 + + True-color outcoloring mode.
