"I have played with this recently and could not find the way to set or change the colors on the volume
slice."

see my previous post about how to do this with black/white and gimp/ photoshop
I did not find any mention of this in your previous post. But it is ok.

"Moreover I found that the  colors, although clearly showing the
expected pattern for the data plotted, it was also having strange behavior: it was giving a color to
certain regions that was not representative of the values."

Could you please elaborate? This is distressing. I do know that there is averaging between 4 boxes to create a value at the common vertex, but are you suggesting something even more problematic? I have never looked into the quantitative behaviour of the VMD volume slice option since it appears qualitatively correct to me.
It is not really easy to explain with words. Showing would have been easier. Anyways I plot a property of a bilayer system: this property is high in the tail region, low in the
head groups region, and medium in the solvent.
With the volumeslice it looks like. averything is fine except in the head group region which is shown low on the slice but in the "middle" of the head region is get the same color than the
tail region (representative of high values).

Note that I do not give volume map to VMD but I build it with it from raw data. That might be the problem. I've not been looking further. The only thing sure is that I have no control of the colors on the slice in this way. I may need to create an new representation after changing the
color scale.

XAvier.
