Does anyone knows if it is possible to manually modify SAGA GIS colour palettes, for example using ColorBrewer references?

How have you modified your SAGA palettes so far?– user30184Commented Dec 2, 2016 at 11:58

Yes, manually, but I was asking if I can put the colorBrewer palette codes. I've been seeing SAGA GIS help, and it should be a way, but I did not find it...Thanks for answering @user30184– user66349Commented Dec 4, 2016 at 8:35

Overall Workflow
- Download ColorBrewer RGB color list
- SAGA - Colors - Lookup Table - Save .pal
- SAGA - Colors - Graduated Colors - Load .pal
First, I visited ColorBrewer2 website, and downloaded one of its Excel sheet. I chose 6 colors of Orange-Red sequence. (a part of sheet as below)
Second, I opened SAGA and loaded a DEM file. At Colors section, I started with Lookup Table and manualy set RGB codes into each 6 palettes.
After entering all colors, I pushed Colors button.
Then changed numbers of colors by Counts from 6 to 24. This palette was stored as .pal file.
Third, going back to Colors section, I changed the type from Lookup table to Graduated colors. And Loaded the color palette of 24 colors I have just saved. Then pushed Apply.
Below is outcome.
