Research direction

Start in Plotly.NET/CommonAbstractions/ColorKeyword.fs and compare the listed colour keywords with the referenced W3Schools names. Check both the keyword definitions and the ofRGB function, then verify that capitalization and spelling are corrected, the duplicate is removed, and the missing entry is present.

Description

Area: Core API Type: Bug
Description

There are some colour keywords in Plotly.NET/CommonAbstractions/ColorKeyword.fs that I think are slightly wrong, in relation to how they are here: https://www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_names.asp

The list below shows: existing name – proposed name (reason for reporting).

Darkolivegreen – DarkOliveGreen (Capitalisation)
Honeydew – HoneyDew (Capitalisation)
Hotpink – HotPink (Capitalisation)
LightAalmon – LightSalmon (Spelling)
LightAeaGreen – LightSeaGreen (Spelling)
LightAkyBlue – LightSkyBlue (Spelling)
LightAlateGray – LightSlateGray (Spelling)
LightslateGrey – LightSlateGrey (Capitalisation, and repeated as LightAlateGray, and missing from ofRGB function)
Skyblue -SkyBlue (Capitalisation)

I don’t know the best way to ‘fix’ these but I thought I’d mention it.
