Custom Range Color Scheme?

currently my choices are of Range color scheme are: blues, greens, hydro, land, pastels, and rainbow, from which I use rainbow the most.  Unfortunately, the elevations assigned to red spectrum are opposite what i need, so i have to reverse each range manually. 

 

Is there any way to Save As is the Surface Analyis box, or create a custom Range Color Scheme?

 

thanks

Out of the box, there is not a way to do this that I know of. I did however write an app that allows for this for any surface analysis. It stores the data in an external file you can easily share with others and import/apply to another surface.

I am sorry to not contriburte with anything meaningful. 

I just wanted to let AutoDesk know that this kind of feature would be very popoular! I have discussed this issue with a lot of collegaues, and this would improve workflow or/and quality of drawings etc. we make. 

I.e. the feature would be to "create specific color schemes" for e.g. elevations, that later could also be ipmported as styles in settings etc.

 

And lisps, API, etc. is too complicated for our use, only a handful at most would know how to use it. So it has to be "idiot proof", as most things are in the regular C3D, haha.

I wrote a Dynamo script to do this, makes it nice as I can setup the ramping for our company standards.  You can check it out here.  http://c3dk.com/2024/02/28/automate-surface-properties-analysis/

 

Hope this helps, I hate that this hasn't improved over the years.
