Description

Contours. To turn on/off contour lines (regular grids configured with contour lines only). Numbers appear when the animation has stopped or paused. The colors, which indicate the value remain visible.
Grid lines. Toggles grid or polygon lines on or off

Product Info. Toggles product info on or off. (only shown if there are products present in the configuration, see the page on the Forecast Product Information Panel)

Labels. Toggles labels on or off (locations, values and/or units)
Value to local reference level.
Flags. Switches to flags for selected time series / gridplot (quality, modifiers or thresholds)

Search and select forecasts. Switches to (previous) forecasts.

Show spatial thumbnails. Toggles thumbnails of each time step below the main spatial display on or off.

Show spatial ensemble thumbnails. Displays the ensemble thumbnails panel.

Sketch mode buttons and other sketch drawing options. Switches the sketch mode between drawing points, adding points, drawing longitudinal profiles and drawing areas when the map is clicked. Contains additional options to save/load sketches and delete the current sketch.

Options to show a graph based on current sketch. Drop-down menu with options to extract scalar time series, vertical profiles, longitudinal profiles, 2D longitudinal profiles, calculate budget and calculating the mean max min time series (for sketched areas).

Activate spatial modifier mode. Toggles spatial modifier mode on or off (only shown if at least one spatial modifier is configured in ModifierTypes.xml). The additional modifier mode buttons shown when modifier mode is toggled on are explained in the spatial modifier section.

Display time. Choose display time (period)
Attributes.

Play. Starts continuous play mode. The slider will indicate the time slice being shown.

Pause. Stops continuous play mode. The time slider remains at the time displayed at the moment.

Stop. Stops continuous play mode. The time reverts back to the start time.

One frame back. Moves the time slider back one timestep.

One frame forward. Moves the time slider forwards one timestep.

Record. Creates an AVI or animated gif movie file. The avi format is used by default unless the filename ends with '.gif'. After opening the file, the display will start playing from the current time position, until the stop button is clicked.

Time slider

The time slider can be dragged to specific time slice.

Data availability

The data availability indicator provides a visual clue as to where you can find data. For those times where data is available, the colour of the data availability indicator will be set to the maximum value found in the data for that time slice.

Note

Note: For grids that contain horizontal flow data in the form of u,v vectors the data availability indicator might over-estimate the maximum values. In other words, for u,v vector data the availability indicator colours might indicate values greater than the actual maximum values found in the data. This is a known issue and was implemented to improve performance.
