Dear All, I'm trying to plot out a color map of a matrix with a custom color scheme, and add a legend to it. The maximum value in the matrix is approximately 1.7, and the lowest value is -2.7. Most of the values lie in the range -0.5 to +0.5. When Mathematica 6.0 produces a ListDensityPlot of this matrix, it color codes most of the plot, but it leaves large areas with "overflow" colors - some of the plot is displayed as white, not on the color map. I'd like to be able to rescale the color function so that it spans the range -2.7 to 1.7, and produce a legend for the plot that accurately reflects this. Thanks! and all the best, --Buz
