Heatmap - how to get the plotted colors

Dear all,

I would like to get the rgb-color code of a data set i am plotting in a heatmap. Does anyone know where they are stored or how to extract them?

camp = colormap

Thanks for your answer.

I already tried colormap(); The problem is that you get all 256 values auf the jet-colormap. I only want the rgb-values of my 28 data points (or the position within the colormap). :(

Just scale values

Exactly what I needed.

Thanks a lot :)
