Edit a View

A View consists of a name, the axis ranges for each of the model display panes, and the depth of the Plan View slice. Each View name appears in a list in the View menu. Views are typically set by zooming and scrolling, then saving the resulting limits. This dialog enables you to refine the view and set more precise limits.

Views are used in GM-SYS Profile Modelling to define the limits of some types of output. For instance, when calculating the gravity response to a grid, the default grid dimensions are taken from the current View.

The Plan View limits for a View may be exported as a polygon file. This is useful for display purposes or for masking data in a map or a database.
