Hi Edward,
Good questions.

Second question first: default values are defined for
DisplayRealTypes and these are used when they have no
ScalarMap. The default values for Red, Green and Blue
are all 1.0, which adds up to white.

You can override the default values by passing a ConstantMap[]
array to addReference(DataReference, ConstantMap[]), and
including:
new ConstantMap(0.5, Display.Red), etc
Cheers,
