A.5.7.1 Density Style Editor

For a density map in RGB mode, each dataset is assigned a colour channel to which it contributes. A representation of this is displayed in a button to the right of its name in the dataset selector panel at the bottom of the density map window. If you click this button the following dialogue will pop up which enables you to change the colour channel.

The Legend box defines how the selected set will be identified in the legend which appears alongside the plot (though the legend will only be visible if Show Legend () is on):

Icon
Displays the icon which will be shown to identify the points in the selected set. Its appearance depends on the selections you make in the rest of this dialogue window.
Label
Gives the name written in the legend to label the subset. By default this is derived from the Row Subset's name and, if it's not part of the main dataset, the name of the dataset's tab. You can type in a new value to change what is written in the legend.
Hide Legend
If this checkbox is selected, then no entry for the selected set will appear in the legend.

The Channel selector allows you to select either the Red, Green or Blue channel for this dataset to contribute to. Note that this is only enabled in RGB mode; in indexed mode it has no effect and is disabled.
