fill_gradient() [4/4]

template<typename T>

void fl::fill_gradient	(	T *	targetArray,
		u16	startpos,
		CHSV	startcolor,
		u16	endpos,
		CHSV	endcolor,
		TGradientDirectionCode	directionCode = SHORTEST_HUES )

Fill a range of LEDs with a smooth HSV gradient between two HSV colors.

This function can write the gradient colors either:

1. Into an array of CRGBs (e.g., an leds[] array, or a CRGB palette)
2. Into an array of CHSVs (e.g. a CHSV palette).

In the case of writing into a CRGB array, the gradient is computed in HSV space, and then HSV values are converted to RGB as they're written into the CRGB array.

Parameters

targetArray	a pointer to the color array to fill
startpos	the starting position in the array
startcolor	the starting color for the gradient
endpos	the ending position in the array
endcolor	the end color for the gradient
directionCode	the direction to travel around the color wheel
