Cut Plane: Contours (+/-)

Add a plane, and on that plane show contour lines for the requested contour values of some field. In this case, the positive and negative contours are shown in a different way, determined by the controls.

All controls are identical to the controls of a contour cut plane. The behavior is different: you specify the number and range of positive contours, possibly using a logarithmic scale. ADFview will automatically generate negative contours as well with similar values. All positive contours are drawn using one color, and all negative contours are drawn with a different color.

The coloring controls determine the colors of the negative and positive contours.

Using the Dashed checkbox, dashed lines will be used for the negative contours. This means that you can use one color (black for example) for all contours and still distinguish between the negative and positive contours.
