:) Yes, of course, but: You can compare only this single value between different elements, but not the relationsship between two values and several elements.

E.g.:
There are some basic, but interesting interrelations between e.g. energy of first ionisation and electronic configuration (or group). You need the exact values to do some fast rough calculations. With gradients displayed its not easy for beginners to know the group and electronic configuration at a glance. 

This helped me alot with understandig the pse, but I needed a printed version with several infos at once. I would love to use kalzium for this, as it has several really nice features.

I hope this is in graspable some way ;)

I will try and do a mockup, but as time permits it could last till next monday. Perhaps it will closly resemble existing printed pse's.
