A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11989802B2) discloses a system and method for handling color assignment within a complex document while maintaining a perceived brightness difference between elements on a discreet-pixel-depth-display. The system includes a processor and a unit that allows users to modify colors within a chosen color scheme for a document component. The color handler in the unit calculates the perceived brightness of the new color and adjusts the color scheme to match this brightness throughout the document. Additionally, the system features a color blender for creating color blend sequences between associated subordinate colors, a column adapter handler for creating unity among associated subordinate colors of a principal color, and an invertor for reversing the color scheme while retaining element associations.

Furthermore, the method outlined in the patent involves facilitating user modifications to color schemes within a document component and ensuring the perceived brightness of colors is maintained throughout the updated scheme. The method includes calculating the perceived brightness of new colors, determining actual colors to be assigned based on existing and new colors, and applying the updated color scheme to the component. It also covers creating color blend sequences, dividing perceived brightness ranges into buckets, creating unity among associated subordinate colors, reversing color schemes, and assigning colors to principal color cells within the document. The method provides detailed algorithms for modifying associated subordinate colors within the same column based on user input and color calculations.
