Hi Jay

maybe I'm thinking to simply, but why don't you just set the min and max values of Colorbar to the values you need. If memory serves you can also set how many intervals the bar displays.

If you set min and max from you data using a Statistics you have a data driven version.

Right, maybe I wasn't clear in my post. The color values in my image are from 0...255 but the represent 1e-16..3e-15, so what I really want to do is just label the color bar accordingly. I've realized that I probably only want a few labels (top, bottom, maybe middle) and I can do it by hand. So now the question is somewhat theoretical, but still, how would one convert a generated list of values to a list of strings?

thanks,

without looking at it it seems that all you might need to do is feed your
list to a different input of Colorbar (there are two inputs: one for the
*locations* of the tics (a value list) and one for the labels to associate
with those locations (a string list). The second one isn't necessary for
your case; that's intended for the situation where you want particular
labels for the tics).

Subject:    [opendx-users] value list to string list



Hi,

I'm trying to change the tick labels in a colorbar from the defaults to
a range of numbers that represent the data.  The range (1e-16, 3e-15) is
a simple list with constant stepsize and the Enumerator seems to build
the list easily enough.  Colorbar doesn't like the enumerator output b/c
it wants a stringlist and enumerator builds a valuelist.  Is there a
straightforward way to convert from a valuelist to a stringlist (or a
better way to build a stringlist for a range of numbers)?  I've tried
changing it with format, but I either get a single string with all the
values or other undesirable results.

tia,
jay
