In the last step of creating an application map from a vegetation index, you can choose the distribution of the zones. I would like to keep it on “same intervals” but I would like to adjust the endpoints of the lowest and highest zones closer to the histogram. Looks like this: ![Bildschirmfoto 2024-12-03 um 19.44.06](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/pix4d/original/2X/5/5edb134c248976cf5f077bf4d8c3ed066326e3e9.jpeg) However when I create the application it switches back to the default setting and creates different zones (would like to insert a screenshot here, but I can’t since it’s my first post here). Workaround is to note the intervals of the zones and type them into the custom intervals setting, but thats unnecessarily time consuming. ---

This is what the zones look like after creating the application ![Bildschirmfoto 2024-12-03 um 19.44.23](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/pix4d/original/2X/5/5f577e4d0bd33e1129dcd3af35e178d0360b5084.jpeg) ---

Hi, I just tried reproducing it, and it works on my end. Are you on PI4Dfields 2.8.3? You should not change any parameter on the left-hand side menu as it will impact the statistics. If problem persists please share a screen recording. Best ---

Hi, just upgraded to 2.8.4 and it still doesnt work. Here is a screen recording: ---

Have uploaded the files. Had the problem also with other similar projects. ---

REceived, thank you. Is there any reason why you set such big cells? I tried and using a normal 5-10 mts cell size the operation works well. ---

Ok, I will try that. I use 36m cells because it’s the tramline width on the farm and the machinery can’t apply product on a smaller scale anyway. ---

I did a bunch of testing: 1. 8m grid - didnt work 2. 5m grid - worked 3. 10m grid - worked 4. 10m grid with rotation of the grid to match the tramlines - didnt work 5. 36m grid without rotation - didnt work 6. 36m grid with rotation - didnt work 7. 35m grid (multiple of 5) - didnt work 8. 30m grid (multiple of 10) - didnt work I really tried my best to pinpoint the problem. Even created a new project from the same images for these tests, because the original project was created on an older version of Pix4DFields. I have no clue why I got it to work as intended on two occasions but couldn’t replicate it. There shouldn’t be a reason that it only works on certain grid sizes. I’m using a M2 MBA with MacOS 14.5 and Pix4DFields 2.8.4 if that helps ---

Thank you for your extensive testing, we have found a bug and we are working on fixing it. We hope you can use 10mts grid for now. ---

Yes this was solved in PIX4Dfields 2.8.5 version. Please test and let us know ---

Still doesnt work for me on 36m… 10m and 12m grids are working, with and without rotation of the grid. ---

That’s strange. May I ask for the complete project?
