PS Z - Pick Slice - Z, (xy planes)

PURPOSE

Picks Z slice out of a file containing a three-dimensional density distribution.

SEE ALSO

PS	[Pick Slice - Y (xz planes)]
PS X	[Pick Slice - X, (yz planes)]
PS A	[Pick Slice - Arbitrary direction]

USAGE

.OPERATION: PS Z

or: PS ZN

.INPUT FILE: SPH001
[Enter the name of the file containing the three-dimensional

information.]

.OUTPUT FILE: SLI001
[Enter the name of the file where the two-dimensional slice (xy plane) is to be put.]

.Z-SLICE NUMBER: 15
[Enter the number of the slice you wish to select.]

NOTES

1. Due to the way the volume is stored on disk, 'PS' (='PS Y' by default) and 'PS Z' are much faster than 'PS X'.

2. Use 'PS ZN' to keep the FMIN and FMAX values from the original volumes in the slices.
