3-Dimensional Plot Controls

Upon completion of FE Match simulation, a pair of enhanced plot controls dialogs appears. The 3D Plot button in the first of these launches a 3-dimensional plot window whose primary control resides in this dialog. There are size, orientation, and other controls that are in the 3D dialog itself. A second dialog displays a set of data and residuals plots that are more refined and controllable than those in the main FE Match window.

3-D Plotting Controls

3D Plot Control Functions:

Dimensions:

The five pairs of check boxes allow the user a way to set the 3D plot X and Y dimension value types: MW; s 20,w; D 20,w; f; and f/f 0.

Z-Scaling Factor:

Set the scale factor for 3D Z values, to increase/decrease peak extents relative to X and Y.

Grid Resolution:

Set the number of pixels in X and Y for which Z raster values are calculated.

Peak Smoothing:

Set the smoothing factor applied to peaks.

Peak Width:

Set the factor that governs the spread of peaks.

3D Plot

Click this button initially to launch the 3D-plot window. Thereafter, when dimension value or other settings are changed, click this button for a re-draw of the 3D plot.

Model Solute 3-Dimensional Viewer

Keys to control view:

  • Shft + Mouse scroll wheel - expand the z dimension (Concentration in the 3-D Viewer)

  • Alt + hold right arrow key - expand X axis (sedimentation - s*1e+12)

  • Alt + hold left arrow key - contract X axis

  • Alt + hold up arrow key - expand Y axis (Fricitional ratio - f/f0)

  • Alt + hold down arrow key - expand Y axis

  • Mouse scroll wheel - zoom in on all Dimensions

  • Hold left mouse key and move up/down - rotate X axis

  • Hold left mouse key and move left/right - rotate along Y axis
