[GRASS-user] r.colors generates different colors than QGIS plugin when same rules used?

very wild guess: is the ForestChange map floating point? (does r.info
say CELL or FCELL/DCELL?)

if FCELL or DCELL try to convert it to CELL with
  r.mapcalc "ForestChange.int = round(ForestChange)"
  r.colors ...

and see if it looks better.


or if the other way,
  r.mapcalc ForestChange.float = ForestChange * 1.0"
  r.colors ...


but I seem to recall that FCELL/DCELL was the one that did downsampling
and you got smoother gradients with CELL maps.

ps- nice to see that qgis gives you more coloring options these days,
can it load GRASS color tables and GMT .cpt files directly?
