| How to highlight a single line of a particle trace dataset based on a line ID? \\ {{:geoscene3d:hydro_calculations:5291693e84181e8b0f4d42138db0ffa0.png}} \\ \\ Since version 12.0.0.684 released on January 25th, 2022, there is a now a possibility to highlight a single line based on a selected line ID in GeoScene3D. \\ The main idea is to make an extra copy of the current XYZ Points dataset, then apply a filter to removed unwanted lines. Then lastly apply different visualization styles to this copy to make it highlighted in different views. \\ This can be done through the following steps: | How to highlight a single line of a particle trace dataset based on a line ID? \\ {{:geoscene3d:hydro_calculations:5291693e84181e8b0f4d42138db0ffa0.png}} \\ \\ It is possible to highlight a single line based on a selected line ID in GeoScene3D. \\ The main idea is to make an extra copy of the current XYZ Points dataset, then apply a filter to removed unwanted lines.

| First at all, we create an object used to represent the highlight line in different views of GeoScene3D. This can be done easily by cloning the XYZ Points dataset (Figure 6: clone a XYZ Points object from the object manager). In this example, this copy is then renamed to “Highlight”. \\ {{:geoscene3d:hydro_calculations:e0aaf244d92c2453bc59f3fbdf1447d8.png}} | First at all, we create an object used to represent the highlight line in different views of GeoScene3D.

| After the “Highlight” object is created, we can now open the “Object properties…” window which allows us to limit the line visualization to only line (Figure 7: multiple lines vs limited by one line). This process can be done easily by changing using the slider “ID range” then click on the “Apply” button when the desired “ID value” is found (Figure 8: user interface to limit the line by ID). Notes that the option “Line Visible” should be checked, together with “Separate Line Path Segments” and a valid “Path ID Field” attribute. The line limit will be applied to “Highlight” object in all views of GeoScene3D (3D, 2D profile and 2D map window).\\ | After the “Highlight” object is created, we can now open the “Object properties…” window which allows us to limit the line visualization to only one line.

| We can now apply a new style for our “Highlight” object by changing the “Line Width” parameter (Figure 9: line width is set to 5). The highlight effect (Figure 11: highlight effect in 3D) is done by modifying the “Line Width” of the “Highlight” object together with changing the transparency value of the original XYZ Points object (Figure 10: transparency is set to 0.10).\\ | We can now apply a new style for our “Highlight” object by changing the “Line Width” parameter, below the Line Width is 5.

| The highlight effect in the profile view (Figure 13: "Highlight" is showed with a different style to be highlighted from the original XYZ Points dataset) can be customized by changing the points style properties from the “Profile” tab of the “Object properties…” windows of our object “Highlight” (Figure 12: profile view style properties of "Highlight".

| Once the “Highlight” object is added to the map window as an GeoScene3D object.

| For advanced user, there is a possibility to highlight more than one line (Figure 17: two lines are highlighted in 3D). This is done through the “WHERE” filter of the “Tabular Dataset” properties (Figure 16: limit "Highlight" object to line with ID (183) and ID (287)). Note that the option “Limit by ID” should be checked off when the “Tabular Dataset” limit is used. \\ {{:geoscene3d:hydro_calculations:15f412da7415ddd7d8f056ed75733764.png?300x406}}{{:geoscene3d:hydro_calculations:3245b455001167d4ed3a32dddeb01c70.png}} | For advanced user, there is a possibility to highlight more than one line.
