iTool User's Guide: Manipulating the Display |
![]() |
The Standard IDL iTools supplied in the IDL distribution comprise seven distinct tools: iImage, iPlot, iSurface, iContour, iVolume, iMap, and iVector. Each tool performs a specific set of tasks related to the type of data it is designed to use. In addition to these specific tasks, all six tools have a number of manipulation tasks in common. This chapter describes only these common display manipulation tasks; for information about specific tasks performed by the individual iTools, refer to the chapters describing those tools.
Note This chapter describes manipulation tasks related only to the Standard IDL iTools, those iTools supplied in the IDL distribution. Other iTools written by users and third-party developers share a common interface with the RSI iTools because the iTools framework is used to create all iTools. However, the specific functionality of such iTools may be different from the functionality of the iTools described here. |
