<div CLASS="Body">Each pane of the temporal editor contains one tool that
|
|
depends on the type of the data displayed. For example, temperature is
|
|
a scalar, so the temporal Adjust Scalar tool is the only tool available
|
|
when temperature is displayed. The Adjust Vector tool edits wind data and
|
|
the temporal Set Value tool edits weather and obstructions. The table below
|
|
lists each of the tools, mouse actions, and functions. Note that you do
|
|
not select a tool icon when using the Temporal Editor as you did with the
|
|
Spatial Editor since the tool is implied by the specific data type displayed
|
|
in the data pane.

|
|
In addition to the tools that modify data, there's a zoom tool associated
|
|
with the vertical scale located just to the left of the time series display.
|
|
The next table shows how you can manipulate the vertical scale with the
|
|
mouse. An exercise follows that will help you familiarize yourself
|
|
with the manipulating the temporal editor scale. Note that the scale
|
|
tools only apply to Scalar and Vector data types.

Move the cursor to the cursor to the far left of the Temporal Editor pane

|
<p><br>The Temporal Editor scale pane offers options via the button 3 popup
|
|
menu. These options control the scaling to fit to data and full view. The
|
|
full set of Temporal Editor popups are described in the <a href="Button3Popups.html#TemporalEditor">Button
|
|
3 Popup Reference Guide</a>.
|
|
<br>
|
|
<p>Now that you know how to manipulate the Temporal Editor pane, it's time
|
|
to edit some data temporally.
|
|
<p>For the next set of exercises, it is best to set up your GFE so that
|
|
both the spatial and temporal editors are visible simultaneously. For all
|
|
of the exercises, you'll be asked to define an edit area then edit the
|
|
data using the temporal editor. Using the temporal editor is similar to
|
|
using the grid point tools. First you define the area over which you want
|
|
to edit using edit areas, then you perform the operation.
