Determine contrasting TColor
This is a simple function for Delphi/FreePascal that returns black or white depending on the specified TColor.
function ColourContrast(incol: TColor): TColor; const gamma = 2.2; var r,g,b,L: Double; begin r := Red(incol) / 255; g := Green(incol) / 255; b := Blue(incol) / 255; L := 0.2126 * power(R, gamma) + 0.7152 * power(G, gamma) + 0.0722 * power(B, gamma); if L > power(0.5, gamma) then Result := clBlack else Result := clWhite; end;
