Adjust the RockPlot3D Slice Position

Follow these steps to reposition a solid model slice. This assumes that you have already displayed an isosurface or all-voxel solid model, and you have inserted horizontal and/or vertical slices. (If not, see Isosurface Settings, Voxel Model Settings, or Color Model Settings.)

  1. Right-click on the name of the slice to be modified (in the data pane of RockPlot3D) and choose Options. Or just double-click on the slice's icon or name to access its setings.
  2. Position: In the Slice Options window, locate this section. You will see a slider bar and a position marker that notes the current position of the selected slice.
  3. Drag the slider from left to right to reposition the slice.
  4. If you move the Options window out of the way, you should be able to see the slice move in real time in the View pane.
  5. And, if you can see the Data listing in the right-hand pane, you should be able to see the actual coordinate or elevation position of the slice updated in that window.

! As you drag the slider bar and see the slice move, you can also get a preview of the change in G value distribution in the slice - the colors will change. That way you can move the slice directly to hot-spots.
