This command allows you to modify and playback the grid sequence history generated by several Carlson commands. The command initially displays a list of grid files in the sequence. You can add more grids, modify grid colors or change the grids order. When editing is complete, pick the OK button which brings up the playback 3D viewer window.
In the bottom part of the window there is a row of buttons allowing user to move from step to step in a grid sequence. On each step the grid displayed has elevations of the grid assigned for that step and the color of the last grid when the elevation at a particular location changed. For example the unaffected regions will have the color assigned to surface grid.
The row of buttons at right controls the view response to mouse drags and the shading. The zoom button activates zoom mode, where if you hold left mouse button and drag the mouse pointer up or down the picture zooms out or in correspondingly. In the rotate mode, the horizontal drag rotates the X axis (around Y), the vertical drag rotates the Y axis around X. The circular movement along the periphery of the picture rotates picture around the Z axis.
When pan button used, the picture will pan if mouse is dragged with the left button pressed.
The shade button turns the shading of the grid on or off.
