Introduction
Sometimes when debugging an issue with an SVG it can be difficult to distinguish adjacent areas that are similarly coloured.
svgparser::read_svg() allows you to specify the name of a false colour palette which can be used to on the issues - or at least look like a work of Warhollian pop art while you try and figure it out!
How
Simply set the false_colour argument to svgparser::read_svg() to one of: ‘rainbow’, ‘hcl’, ‘heat’, ‘terrain’, ‘topo’, and ‘cm’.
svgparser will then sample randomly from these standard R colour palettes instead of using the correct colour.
