legend
|
on, off
|
Whether or not a legend should be displayed with the plot.
|
on
|
max
|
real number,
off
|
This value is used for coloring the variable specified in
var
. Points at or above the maximum value will be shaded with the maximum value color. A value of "off" indicates the actual data maximum will be used.
|
off
|
min
|
real number,
off
|
This value is used for coloring the variable specified in
var
. Points at or below the minimum value will be shaded with the minimum value color. A value of "off" indicates the actual data minimum will be used.

scale
|
linear, log, skew
|
Display the legend scale as a linear, log, skew scale. This option only applies when the
legend
option is on.
|
linear
|
skew
|
real number > 0.
|
The skew factor that is used to map data values to color ranges. A value of 1. is equivalent to linear scaling. Values above or below 1 have the effect of mapping small data ranges to large color ranges to highlight differences in the data. This value is only used when the scale is set to skew.

1.
|
type
|
natural, zone, zonesmooth
|
Rendering type.
Zone
will color a zone a single color.
zonesmooth
assigns colors at the nodes and then interpolates the color between the nodes.

Description:
The
pc
command sets the options used when generating a pseudocolor contour plot. Note that this command does not change any existing plots, only future ones.
To determine the data value range, see the
minmax
command.
Examples:
pc var=d, type=zone
pc min=-10.5
pc min=1.0e-05, max=1.0e+5
