Trick
To make sure that the same colour is used, Custom Colours can be
used. Select a location in the custom colour , choose a colour ,
and click on Add to Custom Colour . Associate a colour with each
land use, .
From now on, the colours of the custom base can be used for all the
new layers.
Important point
To save time, associating land use
types with colours can be done using
Style. Once the association is finished,
save the style by clicking on Save
Style, and save the Layer Style File in
the appropriate directory. Instead of
associating land use type with an appropriate
colour each time, the style
can be opened using Load Style. However
to use a style again with a different
layer, the classification field needs
to include exactly the same content as
the classification field in the original
layer (same number, same spelling).
We therefore do not advise the use of
Style.
