conception of efficient legends. I&#8217;m doing a state of art on the current
tools to manage colours during the legend design process. I&#8217;m wondering
how you conceived the colour chooser and specifically what you call &#8220;Basic
colours&#8221; on the left of the interface: we can find here some kinds of colours
schemes. Is it possible to know which rules did you choose to propose these
schemes and not others? My question is not a technical one, I&#8217;m just
interested by the motivation and the process to propose these colours schemes.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
