Using the 3D View
The 3D View displays seismic, horizons and other data in 3D space.
When opened, it displays a plan view aligned to the X/Y coordinate system. The anchor point sits at the centre of the screen, marked by a red-yellow-blue crosshair.
From the Control Panel, open the View menu and select 3D view.
Each area of the Navigation bar includes a green/amber traffic light to hide or show the relevant section.
- The domain selector provides a TWT, TVDSS or flattened slice.
- The IL/CL selector shows IL/CL sections.
- The Line selector shows 2D lines.
- The Arbline selector shows an arbline.
At Vol, select the volume or group to view. The enabled areas of the navigation bar will display their slice or section from the selected data volume.
See Using the navigation bar in views page for more details.
