Hi Bob -

I finally got the displays I had in mind, not the least thanks to your superb support. The following items were important:

1. Binning, which I forgot to do half-way through the problem-solving process (aggregates the points along the orbit and allows their plotting)
2. Reducing the 'Search Radius' in the 'Grid Parameters' tab in the Field Selector (slims orbit track)
3. Correcting the Layout Model of the 'Grids > Grid Value' used in the 'Plan Views > Value Plots' (make sure to have a "*" listed in the 'Parameter' field in the Layout Model)

many thanks again, HP

Hi HP,

I'm glad you were able to get things working! Also, thanks for the documentation suggestion you made in a previous post. I just updated a few relevant pages in the User's Guide to mention the need for time binning in situations like this. These documentation updates will be included in the Users Guide with the next release of McIDAS-V.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks again,
Bob
