Color Table

The Color Table allows for modification to the default color table that comes with PlotShop. The colors are defined by RGB (Red, Green, Blue) values on a scale 0-65280.

If a color intensive file has been imported on the canvas, you will not be able to make changes to the Color Table. Most color CGMs are color intensive even though only a few colors appear on the screen.

If this happens, save the object file, exit PlotShop, restart PlotShop, edit the Color Table and then open the object file to continue working.
