SF Legend in CCViewer

Post by pmr »

Is it possible to change the text in the SF legend, that is, to change the scalars to text?

Ah no, currently it's only numbers, but that's a good idea!

We could add a specific syntax in the color scale definition dialog, next to each numerical step:
-1.0 "min"
0 "zero"
1.0 "max"

And CC would use the string instead of the numerical value (if any)

I'll try to work on that idea.

Ok, so this was fairly easy.

The latest 2.13.alpha version online (today) now allows you to add a text label (between double quotes) next to the custom label value. This text will be displayed instead of the numerical value.

I'll let you test.

It works! Thanks a lot. Can we import the color scale to use in command line?

Hopefully yes? Just save it as xml and load it with the right command. Please report if this doesn't work.
