AddColorReliefLayerXYZC

AddColorReliefLayerXYZC adds a new color relief layer to a specified MapFrame object from a slice of a 3D grid. Returns a ColorReliefLayer object.

Syntax

object. AddColorReliefLayerXYZC( Map, GridXYZCFileName, SliceZValue )

Parameter

Type

Description

Map

MapFrame

required; This specifies the MapFrame object to which the color relief map layer is added.

GridXYZCFileName

String

required; This provides the path and file name of the 3D grid file.

SliceZValue

Double

required; The Z-value of the XYZC slice to use as the layer's surface

Example 1

This example demonstrates how to create a map coordinate system named MapFrame followed by its corresponding contour map named ContourLayer from the 3D grid file named GoldConcentrationXYZC.vtk. It then creates a color relief map layer in the MapFrame with AddColorReliefLayerXYZC and names the layer ColorReliefLayer .

'declare MapFrame object and create a contour map

Dim MapFrame As Object

Set MapFrame = Shapes.AddContourMapXYZC(GridXYZCFileName:=SurferApp.Path+"\Samples\GoldConcentrationXYZC.vtk", SliceZValue:=65)

 

'declare the ContourLayer object set the reference to the contour layer

Dim ContourLayer As Object

ContourLayer = MapFrame.Overlays(1)

 

'declare the ColorReliefLayer object and add a color relief layer

Dim ColorReliefLayer As Object

Set ColorReliefLayer = Shapes.AddColorReliefLayerXYZC(Map:=MapFrame, _

GridXYZCFileName:=SurferApp.Path+"\Samples\GoldConcentrationXYZC.vtk", SliceZValue:=65)
