TUFLOW Viewer - Summary Of Options: Difference between revisions

<li> '''Show Grid''' - togglesToggles mesh rendering.

<li> '''Show Triangles''' - togglesToggles triangle rendering - triangles are used for mesh resampling.

<li> '''XMDF / DAT time units''' - tellsTells TUFLOW Viewer the units of the mesh layer so the time slider can be set accordingly. TUFLOW Viewer will default to hours in most instances, however will make assumptions when seconds is an appropriate unit to use. Users can switch the setting at any time and TUFLOW Viewer will update the time slider.

<li> '''Auto Play Speed''' - theThe speed at which the time slider will auto progress when the '''play''' [[File: play_button.png | 15px]] button is pressed.

<li> '''Live Map Tracking''' - Toggles live cursor tracking - see relevant<u>[[TUFLOW_Viewer_-_Auto_Update_Plot_From_Cursor_Location link| atAuto theUpdate bottomPlot ofFrom theCursor pageLocation]]</u>

<li> '''Display Time Series X-Axis as Dates''' - Toggles date-time format.

<li> '''Display Format''' - Changes the plot date-time format (doesn't change the date-time format displayed in the time box).

<li> '''Zero Date''' - Changes the zero date-time - see relevant<u>[[TUFLOW_Viewer#Working_With_Isodate_.28Date-Time.29_format link| atWorking thewith bottomIsodate ofDate/time the page for more informationFormat]]</u>

<li> '''X-Axis Label Rotation''' - changes the rotation of the x-axis tick labels when displaying as dates.

<li> '''Resolution''' - Deprecated setting since TUFLOW Viewer 3.1.0. Previously this would control the mesh sampling interval along plotting lines (e.g. along a cross-section line). Since 3.1.0 TUFLOW Viewer will calculate mesh intersections with the plotting line and use mid-way points to extract mesh information. This was done to improve extraction from flexible mesh results (e.g. Quadtree and FV). ''Note: some mesh results store information on the mesh face as opposed to the mesh vertices (mesh face in this context refers to the cell area as opposed to the mesh sides) and TUFLOW Viewer will use the raw mesh face results and not the resampled vertex information. An example of a result dataset that stores results on the mesh face is TUFLOW FV NetCDF map outputs.''

<li> '''Label Field Index''' - sets the index (starting at index 1) of the attribute field used for the plot legend when plotting from an existing vector layer.

<li> '''Interpolate Vertical Profile''' - toggles whether the vertical profile plot interpolates between sample points.

<li> '''Mean Event Selection''' - Sets the mean event selection option.

<li> '''Default Layout''' - Sets the default layout that TUFLOW Viewer will use when it is first opened.

<li> '''Plot Background Colour''' - Sets the plot background colour.

<li> '''Default Plot Font Size''' - Sets the default font size for the plot. This will be used for all the axis font sizes and the legend font size.

<li> '''Mesh Intercept Locations''' - outputsOutputs mesh intercept points with a plotting line (from any of the plotting types e.g. From Map, From Layer etc). If the mesh layer stores results on the mesh face, the mesh faces are also output (mesh face in this context refers to the cell area as opposed to the mesh sides).
