Hi Daniel,

Yes, albeit indirectly. If you look at the "graphics" docs, you specify colors based on ID, which can be most easily understood by the 32 (?) colorids you see normally. However, colorids > 32 are also allowed, and map onto the 1024 color colormap that the user field maps onto.

Hi,

I couldn’t find an answer in the mailing list or at the graphics help page.

Could I use the coloring method from the user field as a color selection for a graphic object like a tube or arrow?

Sincerely

Daniel Möller
