[Qgis-user] color ramp plugin broken ?

[Etienne Tourigny]

Hi,

when does this error appear? If at install, let me kow if you can
install other packages, sounds like an installation problem. Any other
text? Please send me a screenshot.

If not, is the error is when downloading a color ramp archive? If so, which one?

This plugin is still marked Experimental and only works with qgis-1.9
(because these new cpt-city ramps are not supported before 1.9).

Andre (and others):

I made this plugin to download cpt-city color ramp archives.  The ones
that ship with qgis are rather limited (for now).
I haven't made any docs yet, I though it was straight-forward to use,
but I guess not.

First you select the package you want

-  Use gradients that ship with qgis -> uses the minimal selection
laready present
-  QGis selection -> free to distribute selection, about 800 gradients
- Full cpt-city selection -> all gradients,(about 6000)

Next you select the installation folder - if you are the only user,
you can select your profile folder $HOME/.qgis

Then you click Update, package is downloaded and installed.

Go to the style manager->Color ramps and add a new ramp "cpt-city",
you can browse by selection of by author.

Every 7 days the plugin looks for updates, and you can manually check
by clicking update. But this shouldn't happen too often.

There ya go!

Etienne
