Manipulating RockPlot3D Scenes

The RockPlot3D window contains an image pane where the 3D graphic scene is displayed, and a data pane where the different components in the current image is listed: reference items, data items, legends, lookup tables, and viewpoints.

You can adjust interactively the view of the scene in the 3D Image pane (angle, lighting, etc.) by following the instructions in Viewing RockPlot3D Scenes.

If you want to change the look of individual items in the Image view, that’s possible, too. Examples include the color of a 3D grid surface or the transparency of a contamination plume isosurface. This section discusses these tools. This discussion is split up into the Reference Items, which are available for all RockPlot3D scenes, the Data Items which are specific to each scene created by RockWorks, the reference Legends that display stratigraphic names, geochemistry values, etc., the lookup Tables from which legend and data information can be drawn, and custom viewpoints that you add to the scene for quick retrieval.
