Rendering Options
• Style: Changes the way a data item is represented. There are many different display styles.
The availability of styles in the pull-down menu depends on the type of object. Not all styles
are available for a data item type.
These style types may be applied to objects whose icon represents grid data, such as a
regular grid or triangular mesh. These objects have the following icons:
.
• Wireframe - Shows the lines comprising the grid without shading.
• Surface - Shaded surface representation of a grid object.
• Isolines - Isolines are line contours in which the levels are determined by the object’s
colour scale.
• Filled contours - Filled contours are isolines or contours with the areas between the lines
filled in with the colour of the contour level. As with isolines, filled contour levels are
determined by the object’s colour scale.
• Points - Shows the nodes of a grid.
• Arrows - Only applicable to vector objects, arrows represent the vector at each node. The
size and colour of the arrow represent the magnitude of the vector.
These style types may be applied to objects whose icon represents a line set or time series.
Icons for these objects include:
.
• Lines - Shows only the lines or polylines of the object. Points are hidden.
• Lines and Points - Shows the lines or polylines and points of the object.
• Points Only - Shows only the points or nodes of the lines or polylines. Lines are hidden.
