Revisit default colors of delta time #16

It's misleading rn (possibly brightness issue)

FreezeHandz commented 6 months ago

Hi there. I always use your plugin and when I want to highlight certain deltas I can't see the difference between them because of their colours. So I found a workaround. I use less thresholds, but I use an extra one to have the next brighter colour. That way it is easier to see the differences. comparison

Then I thought of a way to use the brightness factor so that each of the 8 possible deltas can be more different.

By using a gradient, I sat the start brightness at a low level (dark) and the end brightness at a high level (light). Then I picked the colour from the gradient using eight squares and taking their centre as a reference point

I made three paletes light color palete_ dark color palete_ three color palete_

So every start squares start with a shade of dark red and then ends with a light yellow

For the #0 delta, It could be a purple. Or it can be hidden. Because most of the time I don't care what the delta is beyond the last one that I set.

If you need the exact HEX of the square I can share them xD

I tried 1st and 3rd pallets. Brightest looks a lot better imo, dark one is blending with dark background too much.

I'll publish new version with 1st color palette soon. Thank you for your help!
