| ==== Step 1. Create a "two-plot" profile ==== | ==== Step 1. Create a "two-plot" profile and show data without limits ==== |
| |
| 1. Use the "Profile digitizer tool" {{:geoscene3d:3d_grids:icon_profiledigitizertool.png?nolink&}}to manually create a "two-plot profile". See [[:geoscene3d:profiles_and_regions:createprofiles_crosssections|Create profile]] | 1. Use the "Profile digitizer tool" {{:geoscene3d:3d_grids:icon_profiledigitizertool.png?nolink&}}to manually create a "two-point profile". See [[:geoscene3d:profiles_and_regions:createprofiles_crosssections|Create profile]]. |

| * When created, make sure it is a "two-plot profile", meaning it only contains two points. | * When created, make sure it is a "two-plot profile", meaning it only contains two nodes. |
| |
| ==== Step 2. Import/export coordinates ==== | {{:geoscene3d:3d_grids:profile2_importnodes.png?nolink&}} |
| |
| 1. For Profile1 "Object Properties" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Nodes" menu <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> the "Import" button can be used to import a (.CSV) file with coordinates for adjusting the profiles to a specific desired placement on the map. | 2. To visualize the profile go to Object Manager and right click "Profile1" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Show profile window". |
| |
| * Vice versa the manually dragged profile coordinates can be exported to a new (.CSV) file by clicking the "Export" button. | {{:geoscene3d:3d_grids:profile_elevation.png?nolink&}} |
| |
| {{:geoscene3d:3d_grids:profile2_importnodes.png?nolink&}} | ==== Step 2. Use the profile limit ==== |
| |
| ==== Step 3. Visualize the profile ==== | * The 3D grid visualization can be limited along the profile line. In the next picture along "Profile2". |
| |
| 1. To visualize the profile transection go to Object Manager and rightclick "Profile1" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Show profile window". | 1. Right click your 3D grid in Object Manager <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Object Properties" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Limits" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Profile" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> click "Active" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> choose "Profile2". |
| |
| * The "two-plot profile" with fixed limits can be moved in any direction on the map with the toolbox in the profile window {{:geoscene3d:3d_grids:icon_profilemoves.png}}{{:geoscene3d:3d_grids:profile_elevation.png?nolink&}} | * With this setting you will only have visualization of the dataset on one of the sides of the profile. |
| * The 3D grid visualization can also be limited along the profile line in map view. In the next picture along "Profile2". | |
| | |
| 2. Right click your 3D grid in Object Manager <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Object Properties" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Limits" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Profile" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> click "Active" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> choose "Profile2". | |
| | |
| * With this setting you will only have visualization of the dataset on one of the sides of the profile on the map. | |
| * This setting also prevent the hidden datapoints to influence the visualized profile e.g. by enhancing the buffer hence the "holes" in the profile. Only datapoints on the visible side can assist when enhancing the buffer. | |

| |
| * The map visualization hence the profile can also be inverted. | * The visualization can be inverted. |
| |
| 3. Repeat step 2.2 <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> click "Invert Limit". | 2. Repeat step 2.2 <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> click "Invert Limit". |

| 4. NB if there are problems with missing data on the profiles go to Object Manager <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> right click the 3D grid <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Object Properties" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Profile" menu <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> and check if the "Percent fill" is 100 and "Opacity" 1. | 3. NB if there are problems with missing data on the profiles go to Object Manager <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> right click the 3D grid <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Object Properties" <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> "Profile" menu <font 11pt/Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;;inherit;;inherit>→</font> and check if the "Percent fill" is 100 and "Opacity" 1. |

| * If both profiles are activated at the same time in the object manager - and if they intersect - only a part of e.g. Profile1 will be visible. The visible part of profile1 is before the intersection point with Profile2 and the hidden part is after the intersection point. See the picture below.{{:geoscene3d:3d_grids:profilemap_intersection_limits.png?nolink&}} | * The profile limit, also limit data on profiles. The visible part of Profile1 is before the intersection point with Profile2 and the hidden part is after the intersection point. See the picture below.{{:geoscene3d:3d_grids:profilemap_intersection_limits.png?nolink&}} |
