Hi, As a side effect of svg color manipulations (experiments by ms and me) the next release will have support for hbw colors: {\directcolored[h=.1,b=.2,w=.1]\blackrule[width=3cm,height=3cm]} {\directcolored[h=.1,b=.2,w=.2]\blackrule[width=3cm,height=3cm]} {\directcolored[h=.1,b=.2,w=.4]\blackrule[width=3cm,height=3cm]} {\directcolored[h=.2,w=.1,w=.2]\blackrule[width=3cm,height=3cm]} {\directcolored[h=.2,w=.2,w=.2]\blackrule[width=3cm,height=3cm]} {\directcolored[h=.2,w=.3,w=.2]\blackrule[width=3cm,height=3cm]} not that useful as it's kind of hard to predict but anyway. Just in case someone needs it (which then makes a volunteer for wikifying it).
