<h4><br>
</h4>
<h4><a name="AlternativeSampleColor"></a><font size="+1">Alternative
Sample Color</font></h4>
Alternative sample color. This is used primarily for ifpIMAGE when you
want a specific color for the sample, rather than the default which is
the graphic color.&nbsp;&nbsp; Format is parmname_Sample_color =
"color".
Note that this applies only if the data is being displayed as a
graphic.&nbsp;
Specification of a parm that is not SFC (surface-based)&nbsp; is done
with
this format:&nbsp;&nbsp;parmname_level_Sample_color.
<p><b><tt><br>
T_Sample_color = "#ff0672"</tt></b>
</p>
<h4><a name="AlternativeLegendColor"></a><font size="+1">Alternative
Legend Color</font></h4>
Alternative legend color. This is used primarily for ifpIMAGE when you
want a specific color for the legend, rather than the default which is
the graphic color.&nbsp;&nbsp; Format is parmname_Legend_color =
"color".
Note that this applies only if the data is being displayed as a
graphic.
Specification of a parm that is not SFC (surface-based)&nbsp; is done
with
this format:&nbsp;&nbsp;parmname_level_Legend_color.
<p><b><tt>T_Legend_color = "#ff0672"<br>
<br>
</tt></b></p>
<h4><a name="SampleLatitude/LongitudeandPlusSignColor"></a><font
size="+1">Sample
Latitude/Longitude and Plus Sign Color</font></h4>
Sample LatLon and + Color. This affects the color of the '+' drawing,
plus
the color of the latitude/longitude samples on the spatial editor.
<p><b><tt>SampleLLPlus_color = "white"</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="ImageLegendColor"></a><font size="+1">Image Legend Color</font></h4>
Image Legend color. This affects the color of the legend when a weather
element is displayed as an image.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This also affects
the
sample color for weather element displayed as an image.
<p><b><tt>ImageLegend_color = "white"</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="SampleShadows"></a><font size="+1">Sample Shadows</font></h4>
Sample Shadows. The samples can have a shadow character written in
black
offset from the sample text.&nbsp; This improves constrast when the
main
sample color is light and the background color (e.g., image) is also
fairly
light.&nbsp; Acceptable entries are either yes or no.
<p><b><tt>ShowSampleShadows = yes</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="ShadowColor"></a><font size="+1">Sample Shadow Color</font></h4>
Sample Shadow Color.&nbsp; You can control the color of the shadow on
samples.&nbsp;
It defaults to "black".&nbsp; Setting it to a different color may
improve
the contrast between the main sample color and the background
color.&nbsp;
The color may be any valid color string.
<p><b><tt>SampleShadow_color = "#000000"</tt></b>
<br>
&nbsp;
<br>
&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="SampleOffsets"></a><b><font size="+1">Sample Label Offsets</font></b></h4>
SampleLabelXOffset and SampleLabelYOffset are the number of pixes you
wish
to move sample labels relative to their "normal" position.
<p><b><tt>SampleLabelXOffset = 0</tt></b>
<br>
<b><tt>SampleLabelYOffset = 0</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="LimitingSamplestoSpecificWeatherElements"></a><font
size="+1">Limiting
Samples to Specific Weather Elements</font></h4>
Samples may be limited to just certain weather elements.&nbsp; This
feature
is normally only used in conjunction with the creation of PNG imagery,
but will work on the GFE.
<p>Limiting Samples to Specific Weather Elements controls the weather
elements
that will be displayed as samples. This feature is normally only used
in
conjunction with the creation of PNG imagery. If not specified, then
all
visible weather elements will have a sample value.&nbsp; Specification
of a parm that is not SFC (surface-based)&nbsp; is done with this
format:&nbsp;&nbsp;parmname_level.
</p>
<p><b><tt>SampleParms = ['T', 'Wind']</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="UsingWxDescriptiveNames"></a><font size="+1">Using
Descriptive Names
for Wx Strings</font></h4>
Using descriptive names instead of the pretty Wx strings for samples.
This
set of parallel lists translate a pretty Wx string into a more
descriptive
name for the sample labels.
<p><b><tt>AltWxSampleLabels_prettyWx = ['Sct RW-', 'Sct SW-']</tt></b>
<br>
<b><tt>AltWxSampleLabels_label = ['Rain Showers', 'Snow Showers']</tt></b>
<br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="ShowISCUpdate"></a><font size="+1">Show ISC Update Time</font></h4>
The samples can show the ISC Update Time if in ISC mode. Acceptable
entries
are yes and no.
<p><b><tt>ShowISCUpdateTime = yes</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="ShowISCId"></a><font size="+1">Show ISC Site ID</font></h4>
The samples can show the ISC Site Id if in ISC mode. Acceptable entries
are yes and no.
<p><b><tt>ShowISCSiteID = yes</tt></b>
<br>
&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="EnableISCMarkers"></a><b><font size="+1">Enable ISC Markers</font></b></h4>
The ISC Markers may be enabled/disabled on startup.&nbsp; ISC Markers
are
only shown if ISC mode or an ISC grid is displayed.&nbsp; Acceptable
entries
are yes and no.
<p><b><tt>ShowISCMarkers = yes<br>
</tt></b></p>
<p><b><tt><br>
</tt></b></p>
<p><a name="ShowISCUpdateTimeMarker"></a><b><font size="+1">Show ISC
Update
Time Marker</font></b>
</p>
<p>The ISC Update Time Marker can show the ISC update time if in ISC
mode.&nbsp;
This update time marker is really just a sample without the data
point.&nbsp;
Acceptable entries are yes and no.
</p>
<p><b><tt>ShowISCUpdateTimeMarker = yes</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<p><a name="ShowISCSiteIDMarker"></a><b><font size="+1">Show ISC Site
ID
Marker</font></b>
</p>
<p>The ISC Site ID Marker can show the ISC Site ID marker if in ISC
mode.&nbsp;
This site ID marker is really just a sample without the data
point.&nbsp;
Acceptable entries are yes and no.
</p>
<p><b><tt>ShowISCSiteIDMarker = yes</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<p><a name="ShowISCOfficialSymbolMarker"></a><b><font size="+1">Show
ISC
Official Symbol Marker</font></b>
</p>
<p>The ISC Official Symbol Marker can show the "P" symbol if in ISC
mode.&nbsp;
This official symbol marker is really just a sample without the data
point.&nbsp;
Acceptable entries are yes and no.
</p>
<p><b><tt>ShowISCOfficialSymbolMarker = yes</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<p><a name="ISCOfficialSymbol"></a><b><font size="+1">ISC Official
Symbol</font></b>
</p>
<p>The samples can show the "P" symbol for the official database data
or
not.&nbsp; Data coming from the Forecast work database will not have
any
characters shown.&nbsp; Acceptable entries are yes and no.
</p>
<p><b><tt>ShowISCOfficialSymbol = yes</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="ColorBarTextColors"></a><font size="+1">Color Bar
Text/Tick Colors</font></h4>
Controls the tick, foreground text colors for the labels, and the
foreground/background
text colors for the pickup value. There is a special set of colors for
the Wx (WEATHER) pickup values.
<p><b><tt>SEColorBar_tickColor = "white"</tt></b>
<br>
<b><tt>SEColorBar_fgTextColor = "white"</tt></b>
<br>
<b><tt>SEColorBar_fgPickUpColor = "white"</tt></b>
<br>
<b><tt>SEColorBar_bgPickUpColor = "black"</tt></b>
<br>
<b><tt>SEColorBar_fgWxPickUpColor = "white"</tt></b>
<br>
<b><tt>SEColorBar_bgWxPickUpColor = "purple"</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
</p>
<h4><a name="WxAdditional"></a><font size="+1">Color Bar Additional
Weather Identifiers</font></h4>
By default, the color bar values that appear for the Wx weather
parameter
consist only of the types that appear in the current grid.&nbsp; For
example,
if the grid has TRW-, RW- and No Weather, but not snow, then the color
bar will have entries for TRW-, RW-, and No Weather, but not
snow.&nbsp;
This behavior can be changed by using the Wx_AdditionalColorBarLabels
entry.&nbsp;
This entry contains a list of Wx ugly strings to always appear in the
color
bar.
<p><b><tt>Wx_AdditionalColorBarLabels =
["Sct:SW:-:&lt;NoVis&gt;:&lt;NoAttr&gt;"]</tt></b>
</p>
<p>The same technique may also be applied to DISCRETE type elements, by
specifying the labels.&nbsp; For example, for the Discrete Highlights
grid:
</p>
<p><b><tt>Highlights_AdditionalColorBarLabels = ["WntrSTMWRN"]</tt></b>
</p>
<p>The parmname may be written as parmname_level for those weather
elements
that are not surface-based. <br>
