Cut Plane: Colored

Add a plane, and color the plane with some field.

The control bar has the following controls from left to right:

Show/Hide checkbox (default checked: the cut plane is visible).

Wireframe checkbox: if checked, show wireframe instead of solid surface. Not very useful.

'Cut Plane: Colored' pull-down menu: Copy To All Geometries command will create a similar surface for all open files (different geoemtries), Delete command to delete the surface, Show details will add two additional control bars with more controls, and Hide details will remove the additional bars.

Field pull-down menu: use it to select what field to color the plane with.

Position plane checkbox: if checked, in the picture handles will appear. Using these handles you can orient and move the cut plane. Uncheck to remove the handles.

With atoms: press this button to orient the plane with 1, 2 or 3 atoms selected. With 1 atom selected move the plane to go through that atom. With 2 atoms selected, the axis between these atoms defines the plane normal, and it will be positioned exactly between the two atoms. With 3 atoms selected, move the plane such that all three atoms are in the plane.

Two numbers: the range of the color field used for mapping colors.

Log checkbox: use a logarithmic color scale.

Bar checkbox: show a color bar as legend for the color field.

The details control bar contains the coloring controls, as for a colored isosurface.
