Colormap (XML format) generated by group_colors() doesn't work on vtkviewer.py or Paraview #77

Closed binarybottle closed 6 years ago

binarybottle commented 8 years ago

The colormap generated by colors.py doesn't work on vtkviewer.py and the color order is incorrect in Paraview.

I tried to follow the matplotlib colormap format example generated by Matlab code provided in Paraview's documentation -- http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Colormaps -- perhaps the x= and o= values are incorrect?

@Shuo-Han -- Do you have any recommendations for how to view mindboggle-generated colormaps on brain cortical surfaces, other than with ROYGBIV? Have you tried Paraview?

Hi, It works on mipav. I usually use python (matplotlib) to plot the colors on top of brain.

Thanks, @Shuo-Han!

I used to view brain cortical surfaces with Paraview and vtkviewer in Mindboggle, but since the mindboggle-generated colormaps work with roygbiv and mipav, I'm going to close this issue until someone brings it up.
