Colors wrong? Why?

I have also posted this on the Affinity Forums.
Why is the color matching not correct lighter in Affinity darker in Cheetah?
Ignore the double green loops.

Hi,
HSL and HSB (or HSV) are different color representations. Wikipedia has a quite detailed explanation of HSL and HSB (HSV).

Too bad I really like the saturation slider.

Cheetah3D uses the standard OS X color picker which just offers HSB and no HSL.

Maybe the Affinity devs will add HSB support in the future to make it more compatible with the standard OS X color picker.

In Affinity Designer, View → Apple Color Picker opens the standard OS X color picker.
