3D Mapping Function E-23
Surface Plot
A plot of the surface as viewed from directly above (see Figure E-20 ). Surface heights are depicted
by the colors on the vertical height scale to the right of the plot.
Height (Z) Scale
A vertical height scale, centered about the mean height (see Figure E-20 ). The scale relates colors (or
gray-scale levels) to the surface heights they represent. You can change the vertical scale with the
Output > User Limits command.
•
Lateral Surface Area: Lateral surface area of the plot.
•
Total Surface Area: Total surface area of the plot.
•
Terms Removed: Lists the terms removed from the plot.
•
Filtering: Lists the filtering options in use.
Plot Options Menu
Right-click on a contour plot to access these options (see Figure E-21 ):
•
Plot Options: Opens the Plot Options dialog box.
•
Analysis Options: Opens the Processed Options dialog box.
•
Color: Choose the colors used to designate data heights.
•
Background Color: Choose a background to enhance readability. If your plot contains data
in the entire field of view, you will not see the effect of changing the background color.
•
Max Contrast: Provides maximum color contrast for data set displays.
•
Define Subregion: Zoom in on a rectangular area of your plot. Click Define Subregion ,
then click and drag to draw a rectangular region. A new window appears showing your
subregion and its statistics. After you have clicked
Define Subregion , but before selecting
the subregion, you may choose Abort Subregion to cancel.
After you define a subregion, a Zero Mean check box appears in the Processed Options
dialog box. Right-click on the contour plot to open the Contour Plot menu, select Analysis
Options, then select the Zero Mean check box to set the “zero” height to the mean height of
the subregion.
•
Duplicate: Make a copy of the plot. You can then make changes to plot options and
compare the plot to the original. Choose Full Resolution to copy every pixel, Half
Resolution to copy every other pixel, or Quarter Resolution to copy every fourth pixel.
•
Save as TIFF: Saves only the contour plot to a tagged image format (.tif) file.
•
Save to disk: Opens the Save As dialog box, which allows one to save the dataset.
•
Cursor Type: Choose the type of cursor to display.
•
Cursor Width: Choose the width of the Crosshair, 2-point or Radial cursors.
