The colour combinations are readable both by colour-vision deficient and colour-blind people, and even when printed in black&white

Are there efforts afoot to permit import of .xml (say) so that you can use Fabio Crameri's extensive list of colormaps? As reported in Nature Communications article "The misuse of colour in science communication", https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-19160-7
From the website for his article, https://www.fabiocrameri.ch/colourmaps/, he indicates:
"The colour gradients are perceptually uniform and ordered to represent data both fairly – without visual distortion – and intuitively
The colour maps and their diagnostics are permanently archived and versioned to enable upgrades and acknowledge developers and contributors."
See also https://zenodo.org/records/8409685 from which you can download all of the suggested colourmaps in a single .zip file.
I use these colourmaps extensively with Paraview, an open-source CAE tool. It would be good if I could use them in ANSYS, a commercial CAE tool.
