The display palette lets you enhance the visibility
of events. T
his choice uses intensity grading to
indicate how often rare transients occur relative
to normal signals. The choices are Temperature,
Spectral,
Normal and Inverted.
Tem perature uses color-grading to indicate
frequency of occurrence with hot colors like
red/yello
w indicating frequently occurring events
and colder colors like blue/green indicating
rarely occurring events.
Spectral
uses color-grading to indicate
frequency of occurrence with colder colors like
blue indicating frequently occurring events and
hot colo
rs like red indicating rarely occurring
events.
Normal uses the default channel color (like
yellow f
or channel one) along with gray-scale
to indicate frequency of occurrence where
frequently occurring events are bright.
Invert
ed uses the default channel color
along with gray scale to indicate frequency of
occurrence where rarely occurring events are
bright
.
These color palettes help highlight the events
that over time occur more often or, in the case of
