    Hi Xiaofeng,<br>
    <br>
    the size of the color boxes refers to the data values of the grid
    cells - they have the same size.<br>
    <br>
    See:<br>

          generates a representation of the
          data by individually assigning colors to the elements of a
          two-dimensional array of rectangular cells (a raster array)
          superimposed on an area bounding the data grid. With raster
          mode, only
          solid fill is possible, and therefore resources related to
          fill
          pattern specification have no effect. </i><i><b>The color of
            each cell is
            determined based on the fill color assigned to the data
            value at the
            cell's location.</b></i><i>..</i></font><br>
    </dd>
    <br>
    If you have the impression that the color boxes are bigger than the
    grid cells, maybe there are more than one grid cell filled with the
    same color because they have the same data value.<br>
    <br>
    Bye, <br>
