Managing color ramps
Color ramps are used in multiple applications when styling data. A color ramp is a series of continuous or discrete colors that can be applied to raster or vector data values. QGIS contains a number of color ramps that are ready to use and allows you to add new color ramps. In this section, we will first demonstrate how to manage the QGIS color ramp collection and then how to add new color ramps.
