Hi,

"Aggregate grids by time" is not something that a beginning user will find intuitive. When multiple grid files are selected and "I'm Feeling Lucky" is used, the files load as individual data sources. Yet, I find that I most often select multiple grids when they are actually time series of grid files. Is there a way to make the choice to "aggregate grids by time" more obvious? Could this be one of the buttons "add source" or "aggregate times," where aggregate times is only an option when multiple files are selected in the grid or general files chooser?

Hi Joleen,
Thanks for this request. I wrote McIDAS-V Inquiry 1630 to request that we make the "Aggregate grids by time" option (currently in "Data Type" pulldown) more visible.

Thanks again,
