你的问题实际上由两部分组成：
- 如何在两种颜色之间生成平滑的颜色渐变。
- 如何在角度上渲染渐变。
渐变的强度在感知颜色空间中必须恒定，否则渐变中的点看起来会显得不自然的暗或亮。您可以在基于 sRGB 值的简单插值的渐变中轻松看到这一点，特别是红绿渐变在中间太暗。对线性值而不是伽玛校正值使用插值可以使红绿梯度更好，但代价是背白梯度。通过将光强度与颜色分开，您可以两全其美。
通常，当需要感知色彩空间时，实验室色彩空间 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lab_color_space将被提议。我认为有时它太过分了，因为它试图适应蓝色比同等强度的其他颜色（例如黄色）更暗的感觉。这是事实，但我们习惯于在自然环境中看到这种效果，并且在梯度中最终会出现过度补偿。
A 0.43 的幂律函数 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_correction#Power_law_for_video_display研究人员通过实验确定最适合将灰光强度与感知亮度联系起来。
我在这里采集了由以下人员准备的精美样品Ian Boyd https://stackoverflow.com/a/39924008/5987并在最后添加了我自己提出的方法。我希望您会同意这种新方法在所有情况下都是优越的。

Input:
color1: Color, (rgb) The first color to mix
color2: Color, (rgb) The second color to mix
mix: Number, (0..1) The mix ratio. 0 ==> pure Color1, 1 ==> pure Color2
Output:
color: Color, (rgb) The mixed color
//Convert each color component from 0..255 to 0..1
r1, g1, b1 ← Normalize(color1)
r2, g2, b2 ← Normalize(color1)
//Apply inverse sRGB companding to convert each channel into linear light
r1, g1, b1 ← sRGBInverseCompanding(r1, g1, b1)
r2, g2, b2 ← sRGBInverseCompanding(r2, g2, b2)
//Linearly interpolate r, g, b values using mix (0..1)
r ← LinearInterpolation(r1, r2, mix)
g ← LinearInterpolation(g1, g2, mix)
b ← LinearInterpolation(b1, b2, mix)
//Compute a measure of brightness of the two colors using empirically determined gamma
gamma ← 0.43
brightness1 ← Pow(r1+g1+b1, gamma)
brightness2 ← Pow(r2+g2+b2, gamma)
//Interpolate a new brightness value, and convert back to linear light
brightness ← LinearInterpolation(brightness1, brightness2, mix)
intensity ← Pow(brightness, 1/gamma)
//Apply adjustment factor to each rgb value based
if ((r+g+b) != 0) then
factor ← (intensity / (r+g+b))
r ← r * factor
g ← g * factor
b ← b * factor
end if
//Apply sRGB companding to convert from linear to perceptual light
r, g, b ← sRGBCompanding(r, g, b)
//Convert color components from 0..1 to 0..255
Result ← MakeColor(r, g, b)

现在回答你问题的第二部分。您需要一个方程来定义表示渐变中点的线，以及与渐变端点颜色对应的线的距离。将端点放在矩形的最远角是很自然的，但从您在问题中的示例来看，这不是您所做的。我选择了 71 像素的距离来近似该示例。
生成渐变的代码需要对上面显示的代码稍作修改，以更加灵活。它不是将梯度分解为固定数量的步骤，而是根据参数进行连续统一计算t范围在 0.0 到 1.0 之间。
