Displaying Data in a WzSurface Tool
The default is to display the data as a regularly gridded fishnet (mesh) surface, looking down (from an angle) at the top of the surface, and using no skirt.
Before you can display a variable in a WzSurface Tool, the variable must already exist on the $MAIN$ level of PV‑WAVE.
Use any of the following methods to display a variable in a WzSurface Tool:
*Open a WzSurface Tool from the Navigator when one or more variables are on the variable selection list. The first variable on the variable selection list is automatically plotted when the WzSurface Tool is opened (assuming the variable is of an appropriate type and dimension). See Displaying a Variable in a VDA Tool Started from the Navigator for more information.
*Export a variable or selected data from another VDA Tool to a specified instance of the WzSurface Tool. To do this, use the File=>Export Variable(s) or File=>Export Selected Data function in the VDA Tool containing the variable.
*Supply a variable name as a parameter to the WzSurface command. You can import a single 2D variable (z) or provide additional x and y variables containing the x and y coordinates of the gridded z data. See Using Multiple Surface Variables for more information.
For example:
WAVE> WzSurface, snow data
where snow data is a variable on the $MAIN$ level of PV‑WAVE.
