Ranged Style Group - MapInfo_Pro - 2023

Updates the field or expression that contains the data values. The drop-down list displays all the applicable fields in the table selected when creating the theme.

The Method list contains the following commands:

Equal Ranges The difference between the top and bottom values in each range is the same.

Standard Deviation The middle range breaks at the mean of your data values, and the ranges above and below the middle range are one standard deviation above or below the mean.

Natural Break The range breaks are determined according to an algorithm such that the difference between the data values and the average of the data values is minimized on a per range basis. This reduces error and enables you to obtain a truer representation of your data.

Quantile Determines the distribution of a variable across a segment of your data (for example, population). Displays the Customize Ranges dialog box. When you choose Quantile, a Quantile Using drop-down list appears at the bottom of the dialog box. Choose the field or an expression you want to perform the quantiling operation on from the drop-down list.

Custom Indicates that the ranges are user-defined. Displays the Customize Ranges dialog box. When you choose Custom, a Custom Ranges box appears at the bottom of the dialog box. Highlight the range you want to change from the list in the middle of the dialog box, and edit the minimum and maximum values in the Custom Ranges box.

Color Palettes contain a list of predefined bands of colors that can be applied on any existing range thematic map. When you associate a color band from Color Palettes to a ranged map, it turns off auto-spreading of style attributes and sets the colors from the selected colors band to the ranges.

Color Palettes provides two types of color schemes for ranged thematic maps.

• Sequential – Contains light to dark shades of a color in the color band. Lightness and saturation of the color changes incrementally, using Single-Hue or Multi-Hue. Light colors are suited for low data values and darker colors for higher data values.

• Diverging - Contains two different colors at both the ends of the set. Lightness and saturation of these two colors change as they move from the edge towards the center and they meet in the middle at an unsaturated color.
