Hi Philipp, I checked your example map with and without my nonlinear scale. In both cases, I receive a reddish color map, there appears to be no variation at all. However, the nonlinear scale changes the tick labels as it ought to be.
As soon as I modify your colors in a random way, I see the difference. I conclude that a) it is unrelated to my suggested nonlinearly scaled colormap style and b) your colormap simply consists of colors which are so similar that you cannot distinguish one from the other. Note that my style which changes the way how point meta is computed and the tick labels are displayed is entirely unrelated to the actual colormap. I suggest to modify the map.
