Is there a way to add the elevation color bar for a DEM map to a ps.map?
TIA,
Rich

Since I can add a raster elevation legend using the GUI map window (see
attached), why can't I add in in a .psmap file?

I stopped writing C code >20 years ago so I am not qualified to create a
ps_rlegend.c based on ps_vlegend.c and integrate it into ps.map. It would be
really helpful to be able to put an elevation legend on a map so it better
communicates to non-technical decision-makers.
Could someone quickly create a ps_rlegend.c and make it available to ps.map?

Hello Rich,
colortable ? : https://grass.osgeo.org/grass82/manuals/ps.map.html#colortable

Frank,
Well, I completely missed that one. I used r.colors to set the colors of the
rater to 'elevation' and didn't notice the colortable command in ps.map. I
should have known the code was there someplace and overlooked that one each
time.
Mea culpa!
Many thanks ... close the feature requese please.
Best regards,
Rich

Please suggest how to improve the documentation to make it more obvious.
Thanks

Markus,
Reading the colortable manual page shows that it's the raster equivalent of
vlegend. Why not change 'colortable' to 'rlegend' as that's what it
produces?
When I saw 'colortable' I assumed it was a version of r.colors, defining the
map colors, not providing a legend.
Best regards,
Rich

Do you mean in this manual page?

Markus,
Okay. Earlier today you asked how I would change the colortable name and I
responded in the email. I'll put the same suggestion on the tracking page.

Please keep in mind that we cannot change the parameter names, only once GRASS GIS 9 comes out. The reason is that it would be a breaking change.
So “only” the description can be changed in a release cycle.
