set_palette

set_palette(mode)

Switch the global geometrics color palette.

The palette is process-global: it affects every subsequent geometrics figure — grouped series colors (via :func:color_for), the heatmap / scatter color scales, and the registered Plotly template’s colorway. The default look is unchanged until you opt in, so existing figures keep their colors unless you call this.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Default
mode	str	"default" (the Tableau 10 palette, today’s look) or "colorblind" (the Okabe-Ito colorblind-safe qualitative palette plus colorblind-safe sequential and diverging scales).	required

Raises

Name	Type	Description
	ValueError	If mode is not a known palette.

Examples

Switch to the colorblind-safe palette, then restore the default:

import geometrics as gm

gm.set_palette("colorblind")  # every later figure uses the Okabe-Ito palette
print(gm.get_palette())
gm.set_palette("default")  # restore the Tableau 10 default
