Adjust layer style

The Layer Styles pane lets you set the fill mode, fill color, and selection color of data in a scene, as well as the transparency of image data.

Left click the More button after the specific layer, pop-up menu, select the layer style , pop-up layer style panel. Set specific parameters according to needs. The operation steps are as follows:

Fill mode

Fill mode is a display mode used to set model objects. It is only applicable to model data such as BIM, urban fine model and building white model stored with S3M tiles.

attention

If you want to display the outline of the model data, check the box when generating the S3M tile .

  1. In the Layer Style pane, select the appropriate fill mode as needed.
    • Outline: This mode displays only the outline of the model, not the fill content of the model.
    • Fill: This mode displays only the fill content of the model, not the outline of the model.
    • Fill and Outline: This mode displays both the outline and fill contents of the model.

Fill color

Fill color is used to set the fill color of model data such as building white model, city fine model, BIM, etc. and data such as 3D surface. After setting, the color displayed by the object is the effect of mixing the color of the data itself with the color value of the setting.

  1. In the Layer Style Settings pane, click the parameter value after the fill color to pop up the Color Settings pane.
  2. You can set the appropriate color and transparency (RGBA) by entering values directly or by clicking the color wheel.

Selected color

Used to set the display color of the selected object in the layer where the S3M tile is located. The color of the selected object will be replaced with the set color.

  1. In the Layer Style pane, click the parameter value of the selected color to pop up the Color pane.
  2. You can set the appropriate color and transparency (RGBA) by entering values directly or by clicking the color wheel.

Image transparency

Used to set the transparency effect of image data. This function applies only to image data.

  1. In the Layer Style Settings panel, adjust the transparency of the data by entering a value or sliding the mouse. The value range is [0.0, 1.0], where 0.0 represents complete opacity and 1.0 represents complete transparency.

Layer Style for Multi-temporal S3M Tiles

For the multi-temporal S3M tile data generated by SuperMap iDesktopX, the program can automatically recognize this data type. The data is displayed in white by default, and can be rendered in the way of layered coloring or dynamic water surface by modifying the layer style.

  1. Color Feature Field‌: The program will read all fields in the cache, and select the fields to be displayed as required.
  2. Color Table‌: Display the corresponding color according to the value range in the color feature field.
  3. ‌Transparency‌: The transparency of the layered coloring effect. After checking the water surface effect, reduce the transparency to gradually transition from layered coloring to water surface effect.
  4. Minimum Visible Value‌: Control the display range of the layered coloring effect.
  5. Maximum Visible Value‌: Control the display range of the layered coloring effect.
  6. Deformation Feature Field‌: The attribute field representing the displacement change of the data.
  7. Total Duration‌: Set the total playback time of attribute changes of multi-temporal tiles, in seconds.
  8. Time Progress‌: Display the playback status of the time sequence.
  9. Loop Play‌: After checking, the playback will loop.
  10. Water Surface Effect‌: After checking, the real water surface effect will be displayed (cooperate with reducing the transparency value).
  11. Play/Pause, Reset Buttons‌: Control the playback status of time-series data.
