E.g. If I plot sin(x) I'd like the color to vary with signal matnitude. To explain further what I am trying to do, I'd like to use a palette of greens and reds so that when the signal goes over a threshold then the plot would vary (slowly) from green to red to highlight specific issues. Thanks very much, as always, John
