Creating a gradient computation

Set the map to the position and zoom level you require.

Click the button on the toolbar and then draw a rectangle on the map where you want to compute the gradient.

Set the gradient properties in the Gradient Style Settings pane and click OK

The following figure shows an example of the Gradient Style Settings.

The color-coded gradient is displayed in the rectangle you have drawn and a Gradient layer is added to the Map Layers pane. You can change the colors of the Slope data displayed using the Color Model property.

To delete a Gradient Layer, see Deleting a map layer.

You can also set the properties in the map style property sheet after the layer has been created
