Color Names
Color names are resolved in the context of a
color scheme. Graphviz currently
supports the X11 scheme,
the SVG scheme, and the Brewer schemes,
with X11 being the default.
Color names are case-insensitive.
In addtition to color names defined by schemes you can also use custom colors.
The Brewer color schemes below are covered by this license.
