Focus Color Palette Review

Horizon Suite — Objective tracker category colors, Blizzard comparison, and palette analysis for transmog and potential overhaul.

1. Focus Category Swatches

Quest & event categories

Category	Swatch	RGB (0–1)	Hex	Hue

Collection & other categories

Category	Swatch	RGB (0–1)	Hex	Hue

Other Focus colors

Usage	Swatch	RGB (0–1)	Hex

2. Blizzard Comparison

Side-by-side: Horizon vs Blizzard native UI colors where equivalents exist.

3. Color Wheel Overview

Hue bar (0° = red, 120° = green, 240° = blue). Markers show where each category sits.

Unused hue bands (candidates for transmog or overhaul)

~90°–100° (lime/chartreuse) — Sparse; between RECIPE/ENDEAVOR and CAMPAIGN.
~250°–265° (deep indigo) — Between SCENARIO blue and DUNGEON purple; not used.
~270°–285° (cool purple) — Distinct from DUNGEON and WORLD.
~310°–330° (cool magenta) — Between IMPORTANT pink and DUNGEON purple.

4. Transmog Recommendations

Current purple/pink: DUNGEON, WORLD, IMPORTANT. Transmog (Collections UI) is typically Epic-like purple. Avoid adding a fourth.

Option	Hue	RGB (approx)	Rationale
Deep indigo	~255°	0.35, 0.25, 0.95	Between SCENARIO and DUNGEON; clearly distinct
Lime	~95°	0.75, 0.95, 0.35	Unused band; "collection" feel
Cool magenta	~310°	0.85, 0.35, 0.75	Between IMPORTANT and DUNGEON; different from both

5. Semantic Color Grouping — Start From Scratch

Principle: Categories that are conceptually related should share a color family. Similar colours = related content. Fresh palette — inspired by WoW in-game UI, not derived from existing Config.lua.

RAID uses green to match the in-game raid icon. All colors chosen independently; Blizzard references where the game establishes them (campaign gold, recurring cyan, Epic purple, etc.).

6. Complete Palette Overhaul (Optional Path)

Space for a proposed overhaul palette. Design new colors here before touching Config.lua. Side-by-side: current vs proposed.

When to consider: Multiple collisions, inconsistent Blizzard alignment, uneven hue distribution, or future trackables forcing compromises.

Category	Current	Proposed	Notes

Scope if pursued: All 21+ category colors, OBJ_COLOR, OBJ_DONE_COLOR, ZONE_COLOR, highlight, progress bar. Optional: Presence, timer urgency, M+. Migration: user colorMatrix overrides remain; defaults change for new profiles.

7. Implementation Notes

Data source: core/Config.lua — QUEST_COLORS, SECTION_COLORS, OBJ_COLOR, OBJ_DONE_COLOR, ZONE_COLOR, TIMER_URGENCY_COLORS, PRESENCE_*
Self-contained HTML; no external CSS/JS. RGB→hex conversion via inline script.
HSL values computed for hue/saturation reference.
No addon changes — standalone reference document.
