This command will color the 3D faces of an
elevation grid plotted on screen or of a flat user defined
elevation based on the Grade Parameter File or by a single
attribute, where the color palette is selected separately.
After selecting the Block model file (*.BLK), the
following dialog box prompts for Single or File for the color
scheme. Selecting File would use the predefined *.GPF file.
Choosing Single leads to the next colorful dialog box to specify
the ranges. The Max Subdivision Level allows for a tolerance to
subdivide the cells or blocks. Zero (0) will not subdivide them. A
maximum of 4 will subdivide them into very small segments. The
option to Draw No Grade 3D Faces will leave gaps where the
parameters of the block model don't meet any of the grades. There
is the option to use On-Screen 3D Faces or to simply enter an
elevation to represent the grid.
The result is a colored grid mesh or elevation that
can be rendered and viewed in 3D.
