Question

You need to invert the color intensity of a quantitative range. Which option should you use?

Exhibit

TDS-C01 question #92 exhibit

Options

  • ABorder
  • BReversed
  • COpacity
  • DStepped Color

Explanation

B. Reversed is correct because it flips the direction of a color gradient, so what was the lightest color becomes the darkest and vice versa - directly inverting the color intensity mapping across a quantitative range.

  • A. Border controls the outline around visual marks, having no effect on fill color intensity.
  • C. Opacity adjusts overall transparency uniformly; it dims colors but does not invert their intensity relationship.
  • D. Stepped Color converts a continuous gradient into discrete color bands, changing the rendering style rather than inverting it.

Memory tip: Think of Reversed like reversing a number line - the scale stays the same, but the direction flips, which is exactly what "inverting" intensity means.
