To create and organise Destinations shadings:

  1. Select “Configure Global Display Options” from the display options button dropdown.

  2. In the Configure Display Options window, go to the Shadings tab.

  3. Add a shading set for each grade.

  4. In each shading set, select a shading for both “Mining” and “Stockpile” Sources.

    1. Press the gear icon next to each source in the Configure Template column to make a custom shading.

    2. In the Configure Shadings dialog, add a shading and name it.

      1. Set the Shading Field to the grade field.

      2. Enter grade ranges and colours.

      3. Press OK to finish.

    3. Press the Select Shadings dropdown next to each source and select the new shading (in this example, Fe).

You can choose colors from the dropdown in the Color column, or you can create a color gradient by clicking the Generate Gradient button.
