<DIV></DIV>Unless I am missing something, you can color by magnitude without
having to compute it with a calculator. Simply go to "Edit Color Map" and
change which component/magnitude the surface is colored by. I guess it is an
unexpected location to have that setting. We should probably change the button
name to something like "Edit Color Settings...". We will change the default to
be magnitude in the next release. <BR><BR>-Berk<BR><BR>

Hi,<BR>> PV colorizes my cells in an unstructured

more intuitive as default? Or do I<BR>> make a
