Bring your own colour tables — or build them in the app.

  • Drop a .pal on the window. It lands in your colortables folder, sorts itself into the right product list, and comes back next launch. Nothing gets overwritten. Files that won't parse are listed in Settings → Radar with the reason and line number.
  • Colour table editor. Copy a built-in or edit your own: draggable stops on a live gradient, preview drawn on the volume you have loaded, authoring in m/s, knots or mph, two-colour ramp rows. A save is refused unless the file reads back as what's on screen.
  • GR two-colour ramp rows are read. The second colour on each row used to be thrown away. Both are now painted as the file declares them.
  • New defaults: AWIPS Wilson REF and GenericRadar VEL, the classic WDT/RadarScope ramp. The old defaults are still in the picker.
  • Closing the cross-section window clears the line and its A/B handles.

Windows GenericRadar.exe is the build that was run and checked on Windows; it's unsigned, so SmartScreen will warn on first run. The other platform archives compile from this same source but are not flight-tested.
