# Objective Add interpolation in HSL and HSV colour spaces for UI gradients. ## Solution Added new variants to `InterpolationColorSpace`: `Hsl`, `HslLong`, `Hsv`, and `HsvLong`, along with mix functions to the `gradients` shader for each of them. #### Limitations * Didn't include increasing and decreasing path support, it's not essential and can be done in a follow up if someone feels like it. * The colour conversions should really be performed before the colours are sent to the shader but it would need more changes and performance is good enough for now. ## Testing ```cargo run --example gradients```

Support for UI node's that display a gradient that transitions smoothly between two or more colors.
To draw a UI node with a gradient insert the components BackgroundGradient and BorderGradient, which both newtype a vector of Gradients. If you set a background color, the background color is drawn first and the gradient(s) are drawn on top.
The are three gradient structs corresponding to the three types of gradients supported: LinearGradient, ConicGradient and RadialGradient. These are then wrapped by the Gradient enum discriminator which has Linear, Conic and Radial variants.
Each gradient type consists of the geometric properties for that gradient, a list of color stops and the color space used for interpolation. Color stops consist of a color, a position or angle and an optional hint. If no position is specified for a stop, it's evenly spaced between the previous and following stops. Color stop positions are absolute. With the list of stops:
vec![ColorStop::new(RED, Val::Percent(90.), ColorStop::new(GREEN), Val::Percent(10.))]
the colors will be reordered and the gradient will transition from green at 10% to red at 90%.
Colors can be interpolated between the stops in OKLab, OKLCH, SRGB, HSL, HSV and linear RGB color spaces. The hint is a normalized value that can be used to shift the mid-point where the colors are mixed 50-50 between the stop with the hint and the following stop. Cylindrical color spaces support interpolation along both short and long hue paths.
For sharp stops with no interpolated transition, place two stops at the same point.
ConicGradients and RadialGradients have a center which is set using the new UiPosition type. UiPosition consists of a normalized (relative to the UI node) Vec2 anchor point and a responsive x, y offset.
