Description
Graphics settings for showing the magnetic field.
Note: late-bound clients (e.g., VB, JScript) must use the ComputeBFieldAsArray method instead of ComputeBField to get the results as an array.
Public Methods
 ComputeBBeq |
Compute B/Beq (i.e., the ratio of the magnetic field at the specified Earth location to the minimum field intensity along the field line thru the location). Uses Date, Angle, Longitude, and Distance Dimensions. |
| ComputeBField |
Compute geomagnetic field in Earth Fixed components at the specified Earth location. Uses Date, Angle, Longitude, Distance, and MagneticField Dimensions. |
| ComputeBFieldAsArray |
Compute geomagnetic field in Earth Fixed components, returned as the array (Bx, By, Bz), at the specified Earth location. Uses Date, Angle, Longitude, Distance, and MagneticField Dimensions. |
| ComputeDipoleL |
Compute dipole L-shell parameter at the specified Earth location. Uses Date, Angle, Longitude, and Distance Dimensions. |
| ComputeMcIlwainL |
Compute McIlwain L-shell parameter at the specified Earth location. Uses Date, Angle, Longitude, and Distance Dimensions. |
Public Properties
 ColorMode |
Mode by which color is assigned |
| ColorRampStart |
Magnetic field start color |
| ColorRampStop |
Magnetic field stop color |
| ColorScale |
Scaling of magnetic field to use when assigning color/translucency |
| ExternalField |

| FieldLineRefresh |
Time between refresh of magnetic field lines. Uses Time Dimension. |
| IGRF_UpdateRate |
Duration between updates of IGRF magnetic field model coefficients. Uses Time Dimension. |
| IsMagFieldVisible |
Flag to show magnetic field |
| LineStyle |
Magnetic field line style |
| LineWidth |
Magnetic field line width |
| MainField |
