Seadisp Save Color Table Widget


Description:  The Save Color Table Widget provides the capability of saving a color LUT to either an ASCII file or as a palette in an HDF file.  The procedure will take the colors allocated to the data portion of the SeaDAS color table and interpolate them across 256 output RGB values.  The Load Color Table procedure performs the inverse process and scales an input color table of 256 values into the data portion of the SeaDAS color table.

Note:  A saved color table might not be exactly the same as an input color table.

Action items:
Color Table Number The number of the concurrent color table to load into.
Flags The flags entries allow the user to specify a range of color indices from both the top and bottom of the color table to be output directly, without any interpolation.  This is useful if flags or masks are assigned to specific indices.
 
bottom  The number of color indices, from the start of the color table, to hold constant when creating the output 256-entry color table.
top The number of color indices, from the end of the color table, to hold constant when creating the output 256-entry color table.
ASCII LUT File Specify that the output file is to be an ASCII file.
HDF File Specify that the output file is to be a palette in an HDF file.
Filename The filename for the output ASCII or HDF file. If the file is a pre-existing HDF file, press the <RETURN> key to load the existing palettes in that file.
Select Select the output ASCII or HDF file interactively.
Color Palettes in Current HDF File A listing of the current color palettes in the selected HDF file, if it already exists.
Append Append the new color table to the existing HDF file.
Replace Replace the highlighted color palette with the new color palette.
Delete All & Append Delete all existing color palettes found in the HDF file and add the new color palette to the file.
Quit Destroy the Save Color Table Widget.
