We found the same problem in our project (Cavacan project, there is a
screenshot in crystal website). We change the object to use diferent colors
as diferent weight (something like the red component is the value*16635, the
blue is the value*256 and the green is the value (not exactly but that was
the idea)). I talk with res2k in the irc channel and he made a better use of
this idea... as I know is in crystal since then.
