Color Map Plots
To create color map plot, open table with matrix data, open context menu and select Create Figure → Color Map or use Create Figure button on toolbar. Selection in table is ignored, the whole table is used for plotting.
Editing Color Map Plot X/Y Data
MagicPlot supports 3 alternatives for X and Y data for plotting matrix:
- Manual range
- Values from first row and column
- Columns from another table
Exporting of Vector Image
MagicPlot renders color map plots as a high-resolution raster image with is included into vector image file (eps, pdf, svg, emf). Therefore file size does not depend on data matrix dimensions. The resolution of color map image is set by DPI value in Canvas tab of Figure properties dialog.
Color Interpolation
MagicPlot interpolates colors in sRGB color space.
Spatial Image Interpolation
MagicPlot supports 3 color map interpolation modes: nearest neighbor (off), bilinear and bicubic.
Bicubic Interpolation Algorithm
MagicPlot performs bicubic interpolation of data using cubic Hermite spline which corresponds to the conventional bicubic interpolation algorithm (which is used for image resizing) with coefficient a=-0.5.
