How do I set the grid size (delta-x) in the print section of a programme so that, for example, I get an output for x=0,0.01,0.02, ...,L where L is the total range? I tried 'points=' but the result depends on L, and for L=16, say, I can't get delta-x = 0.01. | ||

The Elevation plot export processor is inconsistent with the Contour export process, in that it writes as many data points as it can justify by intersections with the computation mesh. There is currently no way to specify the exact points for output. The motivation for this is that it preserves as much data as the computation has generated, and doesn't arbitrarily throw away information. You will have to read the exported file into an external program and select the data points you want. Also, it looks to me like you need to use the PRINT(number) modifier to affect the number of points in the output file. The POINTS=number modifier appears to affect only the plot density on the screen. I will try to clean some of this up in a future version. | ||

Dear Dr Nelson, I have the same issue as norman. Is it now possible to specify a given distance between the intersections? Thanks | ||

We have not yet made any modifications to the Elevation plot process. As I pointed out before, the motivation for this is to preserve as much information as is available in the computation mesh. |
