Was hoping Compose had a Color.blend() function that allows colors to be mixed. I'll write my own unless someone tells me there's one by a name I'm just not seeing yet

there is lerp which takes 2 colors and merges them

all the unit types (such as Dp) have lerp functions

But lerp is not the same as merging / mixing two colors 🤔 (its sort of a fade from one to the other)

[Francesc]

well, how do you define "merge"? lerp takes x from color 1 and blends it with (1-x) from color2, isn't that merging?
