I'm not very experienced in Igor. I have a series of wave representing traces of latitude and longitude and want to color them by pressure. Currently I have them all colored using the color by f(x) feature with the rainbow 16 colortable to color each lat/lon graph by pressure.
I'd like to be able to assign a color to each segment of the pressure range covered e.g. 800-700 red,700-600 orange, 600-500 yellow etc. up to 300-200 purple. Then apply this to all the waves plotted.
Is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks.
You can create the three-column color wave pretty easily using Data->Packages->Color Wave Editor. User OR... section, set the number of rows to 6. Then you can pick a color for each row.
I believe in order to use that wave to set colors as you describe, you will need to set the X scaling of the wave to reflect the bands that you describe. But then I'm not the expert on that part- I just wrote the Color Wave Editor panel!
