ColorRamp

Summary

Allows you to reference an existing color ramp that is available to an ArcGIS project.

Discussion

It is essential that you author color ramps in a project with unique names because it is possible to have more than one color ramp with the same name. The index parameter does help if there are duplicate names, but you will need to manually determine and test for any redundancy.
