5.1.3.4 Colour Map

Colour Map

The Edit Bar tab of the panel includes a colour scale with assigned ranges of values. Eleven colour zones are set by default. They cover the range between the minimum and the maximum values in equal intervals.

To adjust the colour scale, double-click one of the colours. You can also use the shortcut menu of the colour scale where you select Edit Scale and Colors.

Use the vertical sliders to the right of the values to reduce the number of colour ranges at both ends of the colour scale. To change a specific colour, double-click it. Then select a different colour in the familiar Colour dialog box.

You can adjust scale values individually, but make sure that you follow an ascending or descending order. The buttons in the Permanent Scales section help you to assign values automatically and save the new settings for other projects.

By increasing the values in the Number of Intermediate Isolines section, you can obtain a more refined output of isolines or separation lines.
