NAME RESET -- reset geometry viewer to normalize and scale window to the current coordinate system, then rescale to reduce its size AUTHOR Kathy Pearson, MCNC, kathyp@mcnc.org, (919) 248-9240 SUMMARY Name RESET Type mapper Inputs none Outputs none Parameters Name Type Def Min Max background red (float) 0.0 0.0 1.0 background green(float) 0.0 0.0 1.0 background blue (float) 0.0 0.0 1.0 shrink factor (float) 0.85 0.5 1.0 reset now (oneshot) 0 0 1 DESCRIPTION If one of the red, green, or blue background colors is changed, the reset module will execute a "geom_set_background" AVS command to change the background color. If the "reset now" button is activated or if the shrink factor is changed, the module will execute an AVS command to modify the geometry viewer, invoking calls to geom_reset geom_normalize geom_set_camera_params -wsize geom_refresh where camera_size = 5.0 + (1.0 - shrink_factor) * 10.0; Just as there is only one geometry viewer panel no matter how many geometry viewer windows are displayed at once, so there should only be one reset module in a network. It will operate on the current geometry viewer window of focus (the one outlined in red). The user can change the window of focus to the selected window by clicking inside it with the left mouse button. INPUTS (none) OUTPUTS (none) PARAMETERS background red red component of the background color background green green component of the background color background blue blue component of the background color shrink factor scale factor after normalization reset set indicator to normalize, reset, and shrink EXAMPLE RELATED MODULES LIMITATIONS SEE ALSO (MCNC Visualization Plan) 11/93 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The MCNC Environmental Programs Group has created this module as part of a suite of AVS demo modules, networks, and sample data sets to demonstrate the functionality of its visualization prototype for an Environmental Decision Support System (EDSS). This system provides a unified method of analysis and visualization for data output from different environmental air quality models. Remotely, standard output files from the following models can be read into AVS: ROM (Regional Oxidant Model) RADM (Regional Acid Deposition Model), low res and high res RADM (Regional Acid Depostion Model) Emissions, low res UAM (Urban Airshed Model, regulatory version) UAM (Urban Airshed Model, AREAL research version) UAM Wind (Urban Airshed Model, regulatory version) MCNC ALPHA-Prototype netCDF files Alternatively, xdr portable binary AVS fields can be created from these data types and accessed directly from the local workstation. You can download these modules individually from the IAC using anonymous ftp to the appropriate directories /avs_modules at avs.ncsc.org. If you would like to download the entire suite of modules, networks, and sample datasets at the same time, the IAC recommends that you use anonymous ftp to grab the following file from avs.ncsc.org - /sample_data/avs_data/MCNC_Env_Pgms/MCNC_Env_Pgms.tar.Z This contains all source code to all local and remote modules, as well as all of the sample datasets, networks, documentation, installation, and usage notes. -------------------------------------------------------------------------
