change_minmax

The change_minmax module allows you to override the minimum and/or maximum data values for coloring purposes. This functionality is commonly needed when working with time-series data. For example, the user can set the minmax values to bracket the widest range achieved for many datasets, thus allowing consistent mapping from dataset to dataset during a time-series animation or individual sub-sites.

 

This way 100 ppm would always be red throughout the animation, and if some times did not reach a maximum of 100 ppm, there would be no red color mapping for those time-steps.

 

NOTE: The Clamp toggle actually changes the data. Use with caution as this will change volumetrics results.

 

WARNING: When using unlinked values (Min and Max) such the the resulting datamap is a subset of the true data range, probing in C Tech Web Scenes will only be able to report values within the truncated data range. Values outside that limited range will display the nearest value within the truncated range.
