I have a surface plot (2-D contour type) with 8 entries in the legend. The default colors are in random order, but I want the range to be displayed in a logical ranking from hot to cold. So I plan to use a simple grayscale from white to black with shades of gray in between.
In VBA I enter RGB values like this:
The problem is that Excel rounds these numbers to the nearset color in the 56 color palette. In other words all RGB from 140 to 150 are the same shade of gray, there is no graduation.Please Login or Register to view this content.
How do I disable the rounding? Do I need to create custom colors in Excel? If so how do I do that? Do new colors replace the default 56? Are they present only in the current workbook?
