Each time you have a color mapping, you can customize the color scale according to your needs. There are different kinds of color mapping, they can be:

a result of an analysis,
a cloud with intensity values,
a cloud extracted from a best feature (commands Best or Region grow), or
a cloud or a mesh colored along a direction: Along Direction

Open the file BestFitOnRef.3dr (download).

Select the result inside the group Compare Inspect and go to Edit Colors.

You can customize the color scale with different presets or create your own, and the interactions on the gradient directly. You can:

change colors of each step,
change the min and max values as well as the interpolation type,
change the number of steps,
etc...

Try to reproduce the color scale from the picture below. You have to:

choose the List of Values preset and set the values to 0.1 m, 0.05 m, -0.05 m, -0.1 m
choose HSL Longest for Interpolation
Edit color mapping

You can save and reimport the customized color representation.
