[Feature Request]: Improve color palettes
Still relevant with jasp 0.19.1 beta
Description
- Show the actual colors of color palettes in the drop down - instead of names AND/OR edit the names of color palettes so that they mean something (like color blind, not like viridis)
- Add more palettes AND/OR let the user add custom color palettes
- Let the user edit the color of all kinds of plots without resorting to svg or pptx-export
Purpose
to see beforehand, what you are selecting & to have more appropriate palettes for heat maps etc.
Use-case
seeing the color in the drop down is better for non-technical users that do not know color palette names like ggplot2 or viridis; for heat maps a color palett from blue over white to red is often a good choice
Is your feature request related to a problem?
selecting the right palette is hard atm and they are not many
