- because the mapping color <-> range does not match your expectations (like red
would be highest, blue would be lowest)
I guess because of this one. For example, take a look to the screenshot I attached. If I
want to search the most instantiated classes, I should serach colors like Brown or Pink.
But they are not easily shown....and of course, I have lot of colors...then I can to go
with my "eye" looking carefully each package and looking for those colors.
This is why I thoguht that CodeCity would be cool, in the sense that for this case it
would be easier since the property would represent the height of a building...and it is
easier to notice heigh than a color.
I am trying now LinearDistributionMap and I think it can help :)
OK then you can set the mapping you want by sending #propertyColorMap: aDictionary to the
distribution map. Easy to do.
You could also define your own ordering, but this would require a bit more work I think
(LinearDistributionMap does that)
Finally, don't forget you can change 2D width/height before using the 3D :)
Of course, this requires testing a bit with different layouts then (MOMinimumGridLayout is
interesting when shapes have different sizes, it tries to group shapes so that lost space
is minimized)
