Generates a constant color layer.

constant_shade(heightmap, color = "white", alpha = 1)

Arguments

heightmap

A two-dimensional matrix, where each entry in the matrix is the elevation at that point.

color

Default `"white"`. Color for the constant layer.

alpha

Default `1`, the alpha transparency.

Value

RGB array of a single color layer.

Examples

#Shade a red map

}

if(run_documentation()) {
#Shade a green map
