Changing the contour attribute profile
After creating a contour you can change how the attributes (such as color or line thickness) change. You might want a regular rate of change or a more pronounced change towards one end or the center.
To change the attribute profile
1. Create the contour - see Contouring objects.
2. In the Contour Tool click Attribute profile. This opens the profile dialog box.
3. You either select a predefined profile from the drop-down list or drag the sliders to create a custom profile. The top option in the drop-down list (the straight line) creates a regular rate of change.
When creating a custom profile:
Move the top slider towards:
-1 for more change at the outer edge of the contour.
+1 for more change at the inner edge.
Move the bottom slider towards:
-1 for more change in the center than at the edges.
+1 for more change at the edges.
