[Insight-developers] LabelMapOverLay vs ScalarRGBColormap range

[Nicholas Tustison]

Hi Brad,

Would it help that even though the internal calculations of the colormap functions 
are in [0,1], the user can set an arbitrary output range through the variables

m_MinimumRGBComponentValue
m_MaximumRGBComponentValue

?
