Syntax

VO <ObjectPath> CovAttributes {DisplayOption} <Value> [{DisplayOption} <Value>...]

Description

The VO CovAttributes command allows you to define the display of 3D coverage graphics for a coverage definition object.

Note: {DisplayOptions} can be specified in any order, and any number of {DisplayOptions} can be used in a single command.

{DisplayOption} <Value> Description
ShowStatic On Static graphics display.

StaticTranslucency <TranslucencyValue> Sets the translucency of filled points in the 3D coverage grid for static and/or animation graphics. Translucency sets the amount of light to pass through an object but diffusing it so that objects aren't clearly visible. <TranslucencyValue> ranges from 0 (opaque) to 100 (completely transparent).
AnimationTranslucency
StaticSize <SizeValue> Sets the size of unfilled points in the 3D coverage grid static and/or animation graphics. <SizeValue> is a number greater than 0 representing the size of the points in pixels.
AnimationSize
AutoGranularity {On | Off} Enter on to use the grid point granularity for fill point granularity. If Off, then Granularity will be used.
Granularity <Value> Angular distance between intermediate points created for filled points. This can be used to improve smoothness of filled area. Enter a value between 0.0001 and 10.0 degrees.
ShowAtAltitude {On | Off} Enter On to display graphics at altitude.
DrawAtAltMode {Front | Back| FrontAndBack} If ShowAtAltitude is on then enter DrawAtAltMode to indicate the method of drawing filled graphics, i.e. which 'side' of the fill to show.

Example

To add turn on the animation 3d graphics for FigureOfMerit1 and set the animation point size to 3 pixels:

VO */CoverageDefinition/CoverageDefinition1 ShowAnimation On AnimationSize 3
