Figure 134: A Surface View of<br />

a Sine Wave<br />

Figure 135: Surface Options<br />

Dialog Box<br />

Visualizing Array Data<br />

The following figure shows a three-dimensional surface that maps element<br />

values to the height (Z axis).<br />

Displaying Surface Views<br />

The Surface Window File > Options command (see Figure 135) lets you control<br />

how the Visualizer displays the graph. (A different dialog box appears if<br />

the Visualizer is displaying a Graph View.)<br />

The following describes the meaning of these check boxes:<br />

Surface If this option is set, the Visualizer displays the array’s<br />

data as a three-dimensional surface. If you don’t set<br />

this option, the Visualizer displays the surface as a grid.<br />

XY If this option is set, the Visualizer reorients the view’s<br />

XY axes. The Z axis is perpendicular to the display.<br />

Auto Reduce If this option is set, the Visualizer derives the displayed<br />

surface by averaging over neighboring elements in the<br />

original dataset. This speeds up visualization by reducing<br />

the resolution of the surface. Clear this option if<br />

you want to accurately visualize all dataset elements.<br />
