Hue

Hue names a color family, such as red, orange, green or blue. The illustration changes the family from tile to tile while keeping the shape and arrangement consistent.

Hue is separate from how pale, dark or muted a color looks. A light blue and a dark blue can belong to the same family.

In a hue-based color picker, moving around the hue control changes this family. Neutral gray has no visible hue, even when a tool retains a hue setting.
