Custom color - Height ramp

Post by maxence.remond »

Hi,

Is it possible to change the original colors of the Height Ramp ?

I would to modify slightly the shade of the red, green and blue to had my personnal Height Ramp colors.

I've seen that there is a "Custom color" tab but we can only select two colors.. So, i can't have a three colors (R,G,B) gradient.

Maybe I could modify the original value of the blue, red and green directly in the software's source code?


Tell me if I wasn't quite clear enough..

Thank's in advance

If you refer to the 'Edit > Colors > Height Ramp' tool, then yes, you can only set the start and stop colors with the 'Custom' mode (but you can use any RGB values you want for each one by clicking on each colored rectangle!)

Another way to get much more control is to export the Z coordinate to a scalar field (Edit > Scalar fields > Export coordinate(s) to SF) and then define your own color ramp for this scalar field (see http://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/in ... es_Manager).
