Hi all,

As a suggestion for future releases , it would be very nice to have several color systems alongside the RGBspectrum.

something like:
- Hue / Saturation / Lightness spectrum
- Kelvin color ramp (maybe this one will come when light material is ready ?)
- RAL colors (that would be sweeeeet for archviz)

Hi,

I've got a lot of stuff planned much of which includes this.
However, is'nt RAL patented/trademarked ?
if not, where can we find a list/database ?

RAL is indeed a registered trademark. I'm no lawyer so I can't really tell if you can use it as long as you write it 'RALĀ®' or if it is more complicated than that.
Anyway, here is a nice site for color conversion http://www.colorexplorer.com/colorlibraries.aspx
"Color Library Menu" -> "RALĀ®".
