Description

The pathlines dialog box is used to generate pathlines in the selected realisation.
The pathlines dialog box is displayed by selecting a realisation item in the session tree and choosing Pathlines from the right-click menu. Only one pathlines dialog box can be open at once, so this menu item is disabled if the dialog box is already open. If the dialog box is required for a different realisation then the open dialog box must be closed first.
The Pathlines menu item is not available for items that are not realisations or for realisations that do not have pathline data loaded.

The image below shows pathlines generated from two plane sources and represented as tubes and coloured by time.

Buttons

The pathlines dialog box has three buttons at the bottom:

OK: Applies the settings, closes the dialog box, generates the pathlines and displays results (if requested).
If there have been no changes to the settings then the dialog box just closes and displays results (if requested).
Cancel: Discards any changes since the last Apply, if any, and closes the dialog box.
Apply: Applies the settings, generates the pathlines, displays results (if requested) and leaves the dialog box open.
If there have been no changes then only the results are displayed (if requested).

Panels

The pathlines dialog box is has two tabbed panels. One panel is responsible for settings relating to the generation of the pathlines and the other panel is responsible for the appearance of the pathlines.

Definition: Sets properties that define how pathlines will be generated.
Appearance: Sets properties that define the appearance of pathlines.
