Color mapping crossplots

Select areas of the crossplot to color. Either work with a color gradient to change the default palette or use a block fill to change the color of desired cells on the grid. The color you apply is also displayed for the data points on the log or synthetic that also fall within that cell.

This functionality is similar to drawing annotations that encompass desired data points. For details, seeRelated Topics below.

To color map crossplots:

  1. Open theCrossplot Properties: Color Mapping dialog box:
  • From the menu, Edit>Crossplot properties
  • From the tool bar, click on the main toolbar
  1. Click the Color Mapping tab.
  2. Select either of the following:
  • Gradational, to apply a color to one of the four quadrants that blends with the colors from the surrounding three quadrants.
  • Blocked, to fill individual cells you click with a solid color. In the Columns and Rows boxes, type the number of segments into which to divide the overall Crossplot Viewer canvas size. For example, if you type 2 in both boxes, the Crossplot viewer canvas is divided into four quadrants. If you type 100 in both boxes, the Crossplot viewer canvas is divided into a 100 x 100 grid.
  1. Click Brush to select the desired color.
  2. In the Link List pane, click the synthetic or log on which to display the data point highlighting.

Note:

To hide color coding from the Crossplot Viewer, clear the Enable color coding check box.
