GWT Display Options

The GWF/GWT Display Options dialog

The GWF/GWT Display Options dialog is accessed by right-clicking on a GWT model under a MODFLOW 6 simulation in the Project Explorer. It contains the following:

  • Spreadsheet – This contains three columns involved in setting the display options for the GWF model.
    • Checkbox – These checkboxes can be used to activate or de-activate if a certain display aspect will be used.
    • Color/style – Clicking this button will bring up a Symbol Attributes dialog. This dialog has multiple options for changing the font:
      • Size – This numeric updown can be used to change the size of the symbols.
      • Color – There are two options here for changing the color of a symbol. One is a drop-down that brings a small window containing potential colors that can be chosen and a More Colors... button. Either pressing the button in this window, or pressing the button next to the Color text will bring up a Select Color dialog. This dialog has multiple options for changing the colors:
        • Basic colors – This contains a grid of pre-defined colors that can be selected for use.
        • Pick Screen Color – Clicking this button allows any color present on the screen to be selected for use. The cursor will change shape to a + symbol, and additional text will populate below the button while it is being used. The first line contains information about the spatial coordinates of the cursor's current location. The second line indicates that pressing the ESC key will cancel out of this operation.
        • Custom colors – This contains a grid of user-defined colors that can be selected for use. These may all be empty if none have yet been defined.
        • Add to Custom Colors – This will add the color that is currently defined to the grid of Custom colors, at the position that had last been selected by the user.
        • Color Selection Window – This window allows a cursor to be dragged across a gradient to select a color. In addition, there is a smaller spectrum to the right that can be dragged across to select how light/dark the color will be in value, and a preview window that displays what the color will look like.
        • Hue – This numeric updown can be used to specifically define the hue for the color.
        • Sat – This numeric updown can be used to specifically define the saturation for the color.
        • Val – This numeric updown can be used to specifically define the value for the color.
        • Red – This numeric updown can be used to specifically define the Red value for the color.
        • Green – This numeric updown can be used to specifically define the Green value for the color.
        • Blue – This numeric updown can be used to specifically define the Blue value for the color.
        • HTML – This textbox can be used to specifically define the HTML code for the color.
      • Shape Buttons – These buttons can be used to change the shape of the symbol and how it will be filled in.
      • Sample Space – This space displays a preview sample of what the symbol will look like.
    • Description – This textbox (not editable) describes what is being represented for a specific row.
  • All On – This will activate the checkboxes for all items in the spreadsheet.
