Creating 4D Volume Graphs

This example illustrates how to create 4D volume data graphs. You can find the data in the file setuppath\ samples\data\regular4d.txt, here setuppath is the setup path of Visual Data in your computer, for example, c:\program files\Visual Data.

1. Click button.

2. Click Import Data ... item from File menu to import data from the file setuppath\ samples\data\regular4d.txt. The size of the data is 13*11*9. You can see them in Data Edittor.

3. Click button in Standard toolbar to open 4D Slice Properties dialogbox.
In YZ Direction tab:
input -60 in Input A X Value textbox, input 1 and 11 in Rows Y From textbox and To textbox, click Add button
input 0 in Input A X Value textbox, input 1 and 9 in Rows Z From textbox and To textbox, uncheck Add Color Map
and Add Contour checkbox, click Add button.
In ZX Direction tab:

input 0 in Input A X Value textbox, input 1 and 13 in Rows X From textbox and To textbox, uncheck Add Color Map
and Add Contour checkbox, click Add button.
In XY Direction tab:
input -40 in Input A X Value textbox, input 1 and 13 in Rows X From textbox and To textbox, click Add button
input 0 in Input A X Value textbox, input 1 and 11 in Rows Y From textbox and To textbox, uncheck Add Color Map
and Add Contour checkbox, click Add button.

Click OK button to create the slices.
