Hi,  
I am trying to change color map editor so that I get blue color for data points more than 0.8 and red color for less than 0.8. I have managed to make it bi-color using the Color Discretization option however I am unable to give a custom range

I have attached the screenshot. Thank you for your time and support

Use Step color space instead of Diverging

Thank you. Where can I find that option? Within Color Spacing there is a dropdown with 5 options:  
RGB  
HSV  
Lab  
Diverging  
Lab/CIEDE 2000
