Intrusion Contour Plot Workflow Tool
The intrusion contour plot tool allows users to visualise an intrusion plot in D3PLOT, we use PRIMER to set the tool up.
Introduction
In D3PLOT, this tool displays an intrusion plot as specified by the user with the option to move between states and create your own reference state from a specified model. In PRIMER we can set the tool up for models, by selecting the Intrusion parts and the reference nodes. The user can then save to file or save to model.
How to use the Workflow Tool
When this tool is initially launched, PRIMER will ask you to select which model you want to use to set up the Intrusion Tool, you can only set a single model up at a time. The GUI of this tool will look something like this by default:
Intrusion Parts
Users can choose which parts they want to use in the Intrusion plot, the specified parts will be unblanked in D3PLOT by default and the camera set up based on these parts.
Reference Nodes
Users can choose the location of the three reference nodes they wish to use. These are used to create a coordinate system and for setting up the camera in D3PLOT, the intrusion is based on these nodes.
Saving
Users can choose to save the data to a .JSON file or directly to the model. The user data from the file will then be picked up when the workflow is selected in D3PLOT.
