Color selection not reproducible with set.seed

[venpopov]

set.seed(1985)
randomColor(N, hue='orange')

This should produce the same output every time its run.

As far as I can tell, there is no way to get the same colors with a specific hue every time, but you can get a reproducible set of distinct colors if you run set.seed(1985); distinctColorPalette(N). I know that probably doesn't help your use case, but wanted to point it out for others.

Yes. It can now. See the new PR #14 .

See these two runs. Technically speaking, the colors are not exactly the same, but visually speaking, they look the same.

scales::show_col(randomcoloR::randomColor(10, hue='orange', seed=10))
scales::show_col(randomcoloR::randomColor(10, hue='orange', seed=10))

I am running this package in version 1.1.0.1; The randomColor function does not accept the seed argument.

library(randomcoloR)
#> Warning: package 'randomcoloR' was built under R version 3.6.3
scales::show_col(randomcoloR::randomColor(10, hue='orange', seed=10))
#> Error in randomcoloR::randomColor(10, hue = "orange", seed = 10): unused argument (seed = 10)
