Is there a way to get similar raster styling in QGIS as ArcGIS does with classified raster data based on percentile scores? In other words, I want an equal number of pixels in one color for my entire raster. I already tried all settings for pseudocolor in QGIS. QGIS 2.12.1 Windows
In ArcGIS this functionality can be found in Layer properties – Symbology – Classified – Classify – Quantile
This is easy with shapefiles but not evident to me with raster files
UPDATE: I started working on a plugin but ran into problems: Quantile in QGIS python Plugin
Dialog window in arcGIS
Classes in Histogram for equal interval setting
classes in histogram for quantile (Equal number of pixels in class) setting

The singleband pseudocolor dialogue has an 'equal interval' option on which you can set the # of classes and the colours themselves:
Is that what you're after?
