Customize color in Text Point and Trajectory Data Files
Posted: Sun Jun 04, 2017 3:51 pm
Good morning everyone,
I make a track map by the option "Text Point and Trajectory Data Files".
See topic : viewtopic.php?f=14&t=1825
My text file is like this :
198909150000,13.8,-50.5,70
198909150600,14.0,-51.9,70
198909151200,14.2,-53.3,80
198909151800,14.6,-54.6,90
198909160000,14.8,-56.1,90
198909160600,15.1,-57.3,90
198909161200,15.4,-58.4,80
When i choose for the last column the "mi/hr" option in the point data parameter window, everything is okay. I have the map, the track, and the color scale.
But i need to do a different. I want to have a color by intensity level.
For example :
10= Tropical Depression
20= Tropical Storm
30= Hurricane 1
40= Hurricane 2
etc ....
And i want, on my map, to fixe one color for each level (10,20,30......). So like this, on all my track map pictures, i will have the same color for the same intensity, for all of the cyclones that i illustrate.
I see in the documentation the "Color From Parameter" but i'm not able to applicate this in my track layer.
I thank you for all for your help.
Have a nice week.
Best Regards
françois
