The Decomposition coloring algorithm colors fractals according to the "angle" of the last value of z from the fractal formula. The angle is decomposed and distributed over the full range of the gradient.
This coloring algorithm tends to create circular bands all over the image that contain all colors from the gradient. Low values (for example 4) for the bail-out parameter of the fractal formula usually give the best results.
With convergent fractal types, such as Newton or Nova, Decomposition usually does not create smoothly colored images, but it can still be interesting.
Decomposition is available as a coloring algorithm in Standard.ucl and as a coloring plug-in in Standard.ulb.
