but, the color combination is hue, value and chrome.... and hue values are normally integer values..it is measured in degrees in a horizontal circle of five principal colours Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple......does 7.5 denote degrees? BG is blue - green.

6 is value - i.e. from 0 black to 10 white ...

1.5 is chrome - faint light color of washable color...

This is what i understand. In another reference, 7.5 BG 6/1.5 is given as bright greyish blue-green.

concrete point is expected, thanx

Regards,

sks

Read the Wikipedia entry more carefully ...

"A color is fully specified by listing the three numbers for hue, value, and chroma. For instance, a fairly saturated purple of medium lightness would be 5P 5/10 with 5P meaning the color in the middle of the purple hue band, 5/ meaning medium lightness, and a chroma of 10 (see the swatch to the right)."
