Global Mapper v25.0

Float mapping of the point feature colors?

Hello

I need to assign different color to each vector point feature of the layer (stars).
I would like to use values from database (spectrum type) as a map for these colors.
I don't expect that GM will create these associations
but will read them from the standard point style definition:
AttrName=SPTYPE
AttrVal
=A1
AttrPointStyle=Dot - FirstColor@SCALE=2
AttrVal=G0
AttrPointStyle=Dot - SecondColor@SCALE=2
AttrVal=M0
AttrPointStyle=Dot - NColor@SCALE=2

Let's assume:
SPTYPE=A1 => RGB(200,250,250)
SPTYPE=G0 => RGB(240,200,80)
SPTYPE=M0 => RGB(250,110,100)
etc.

Can this job be done by Global Mapper
Or can I only use predefined point styles?

    I missed useful <DOT_CUSTOM_size_R_G_B> command:

    AttrVal=B3Ve
    AttrPointStyle=DOT_CUSTOM_2_48_255_152

    Works perfectly.

    This is the sample of my target image (after some small graphic corrections).



    I also attached the source workspace archive for stars up to 6M with .gm_layer_style files.
