Hi Alan,I tried to apply your approach but the result is exactly the same. Due
to the fact that I have to apply the transformation both on the data and the
isolevel.
Any other idea?
Thanks

Yes, using the transformation I indicated.

Yes.

The plshades call would be no slower or faster because it is plotting
an array of cmap1 indices in the range from 0. to 1. just as per
normal. There would be some extra time required before you make that
call to convert your array into that 0. to 1. range via the log
transformation I suggested, but that time should be negligible with
today's computer speeds. For example, you should be able to do the
order of 100 million of such transformations per second assuming a
2GHz machine, and assuming a mathematical transformation would cost
~20 machine cycles per array value.
Anyhow, good luck with this and let us know how it goes.
Alan
