classmethod cumulative_percent(file, itr)

Define a percent-based GXITR of up to 12 zones.

0 if OK 1 if user cancels
Return type:

int

New in version 5.0.

License: Geosoft End-User License

Limitations: May not be available while executing a command line program.

Note: The GXITR values are interpreted as cumulative percent values, using the “PERCENT=1” value in the GXITR‘s GXREG.

Note that processes using ITRs do not automatically know to convert between percent values and “actual” data values. The GXREG “PERCENT” value is simply a flag to indicate to a user that the values are intended to be in the range from 0 < x < 100. The GXITR should not, therefore, be applied directly to data unless that data is already given in percent.

If the file name is defined on input, the initial GXITR will be loaded from it. If it is left blank, a default 5-color transform with The color transform file name is used as the default when the save button is pushed, and is updated both after the load and save buttons are pushed by the value input or selected by the user.

Limitations: May not be available while executing a command line program.

Note: Often, a Datamine file can be opened a number of different ways (e.g. as a string file or a as wireframe (point) file. The following function checks to see if there is a choice to be made between types supported by Geosoft for import. If not, it just returns the original type “hint” from Datamine.
