Follow these steps to adjust how smooth the surface and color blending appear in the 3D surface.
- In the Data pane of the window, right-click on the name of the surface to be modified and choose Options.
- Smoothing: Locate this setting in the Grid Options window. By clicking the down-arrow you can see the options.
- Smooth: Choose this option to have the solid or gradational colors blend into each other.
- Flat: Choose this to have the surface colors be displayed without blending, resulting in a more faceted appearance.
- Click the Apply button at any time to view the effect of your smoothing changes on the surface. You may need to drag the Options window out of the way to view the display. You do not need to close the Grid Options window to apply and see the changes.
! Using the Apply button tells the program to invoke the changes you have made. You cannot discard changes once they have been applied.
