TUFLOW Viewer - Summary of Plotting Toolbar

Tool Description

1. Location Selection Box - Changes the method of choosing the location to extract plotting information from – either from the map at the time of plotting, or from a pre-existing feature in a vector layer.
2. Plot Time Series from Map Output - Plots a time series from a single point from the map output results.
3. Plot Cross Section from Map Output - Plots a cross section from a polyline from the map output results at the current timestep.
4. Plot Flux from Map Output - Plots flux (flow) from a polyline from the map output results.
5. Flux Plot Secondary Axis - Places the flux that has been plotted, or will be plotted, onto the secondary axis.
6. Live Cursor Tracking - Toggles live cursor tracking when plotting.
7. Toggle Mesh Rendering - Toggles mesh rendering for the map outputs.
8. 3D to 2D Averaging Time Series - Plots a time series from a single point from the map output results using specified depth averaging methods (used for 3D map outputs).
9. 3D tp 2D Averaging Cross Section - Plots a cross section from a polyline from the map output results at the current timestep using specified depth averaging methods (used for 3D map outputs).
10. Curtain Plot - Plots curtain from a polyline from the map output results at the current timestep.
11. Vertical Profile - Plots profile vertically down the water column from a single point at the current timestep (used for 3D map outputs).
12. Refresh Current Plot - Refreshes the current plot by recalculating plot items.
13. Clear Current Plot - Clears the current plot.
14. Freeze Axis Limits - Locks the X and Y axis limits to the current values.
15. Freeze X-Axis Limits - Locks the X axis limits to the current values (will be applied to a secondary X axis if one is present).
16. Freeze Y-Axis Limits - Locks the Y axis limits to the current values (will be applied to a secondary Y axis if one is present).
17. Legend - Toggle legend and set legend settings.
18. Reset Original View - Will reset extents to original view.
19. Previous View - Will reset plot extents to previous view.
20. Next View - Will reset plot extents to next view.
21. Pan Axes - Allow user to interactively change plot extents by panning.
22. Zoom - Allow user to interactively change plot extents by zooming to a rectangle.
23. Customize - Opens up plot customisation options.
24. Save - Export plot as image.
