: By "breakpoints" I meant the numbers in the boxes labeled Cutoff #1, Cutoff #2, #3, and #4. They control the number of Hits where the colors change. When you first bring up the Hits By State page there are numbers in the boxes. That's what I meant by "defaults". You probably change then to different values before generating the map?

:
: Keep this in mind. When you look at the map, either in your profile or on the map generation page (they are the same thing), your browser places a copy of the map in it's "cache", probably on your disk but possibly in memory. When you look at the map a second time the browser **may** display that stored image rather than downloading a new copy from the site (it saves time). Ergo, you may have actually changed the map by re-generating it with new colors or breakpoints but you may not see it because you are looking at a copy of the previous map. The usual remedy for this is to Right Click on the map and select Reload or Refresh (depending on your browser). Sometimes it may take a couple of attempts to get the new copy, but once usually does it. Caches can do strange things.

:
: Without knowing your distribution of hits by state it is difficult to tell what is going on but here's my guess. Because you probably have a large number of hits in OK compared to any other state I would guess that the version of the map with OK in red and everything else gray or the darker green was generated using the default breakpoints. They don't work for most people. I get a somewhat similar map when I use the default values. The map currently in your profile probably has values that you entered?

: I was asking for your numbers to see if my assumption was correct. In which case I **might** be able to tell what was going on with your map.


:
: : I did try to change the colors but they remained the same. Thanks jj

:
: : : let me ask to be sure. I see that the colors are back in your map so I assume that you did re-generate the map?

: : : Are those default breakpoint settings or to you enter your own? What are your defaults and what did you change them to?

: :
: : : : : : I checked my profile and the colors have all changed again. What am I doing wrong? Thanks & Happy Days jj

: : : : :
: : : : : If so do you use the default breakpoints for the various colors? If not you have to be sure to reset them to your desired value **before** you re-generate it. Same if you change the default colors. The system does not remember your previous selections.
