Introduction
The IDL iVolume tool displays your data in volume form. The iVolume tool then allows you great flexibility in manipulating and visualizing volume data. To use iVolume, from the IDL Command Line, type iVolume. An empty iVolume tool appears. You can then import volume data using any of several data import methods. For more information importing volume data see Importing and Exporting Data.
Note
For more information on accepted arguments, see "IVOLUME" (IDL Reference Guide).
The iVolume tool can be launch in many different ways:
- By dragging variables onto the Volume icon of the Visualization Palette (see Volume Visualizations)
- At the IDL Command Line without arguments or keywords
- At the IDL Command Line with arguments or keywords
- Through the File → New → Visualization → iVolume menu option in the IDL Workbench
- Through the File → New → iVolume menu option in an iTool
