2D color options

Hello, i´ve been working with this wonderful software since one year ago. I think your are doing a huge work. Congratulations.

I suggest a few things:

The color contrast in the background isn´t enough. For instance, i´d like to see RH variable with 2 (maybe 3 ) color. One might be red for RH higher than 85% and the other color might be completly different (green) ( to get big contrast)(lower than 85%).


It would be great to set the range of each color, and the colors it self. Inside each color, this might be shown in a scaled way. This option might be available for most variable (RH, T,..)

i saw something like that in this web site. http://winweather.org/4panel1.jpg

Hello olele and every others users of zygrib:

I also use zygrib for the weather forecast in my country, and is very useful tool for me. Like you I have seen that colors of range and scale tend to confuse, I know that our friends from zygrib are already working on that.
A "trick" that I used in this cases, is disable the option Smooth colors in Data --> Options (Ctrl+F), and with that I can better define the ranges, but the map doesn´t look so cute :mrgreen: .
I hope that this help you for now.

Zygrib Team, thank you for keep working in this software
