Selecting scatter sets to merge
The Merge Scatter Sets dialog contains a spreadsheet listing all of the scatter sets currently loaded into SMS. Scatter sets to merge are specified by checking the Merge box in the Merge column of the spreadsheet. When merging scatter sets, only one dataset is transferred to the merged scatter set. The dataset to be transferred is specified for each scatter set in the Dataset column of the spreadsheet.
The Priority column of the spreadsheet is only used if the Overlapping region option is set to Delete lower priority scatter points. This option is explained below.
Merge Options
The following options are available when merging scatter sets:
Merged scatter set options
- Name - Specify the name for the new, merged scatter set.
- Delete original scatter sets - The scatter sets to be merged are deleted after the new, merged set is created.
Overlapping region options
- Merge all scatter points - All scatter points from all scatter sets to be merged are combined into one set and retriangulated.
- Delete lower priority scatter points - In regions where scatter points and triangles overlap, the scatter points and triangles from the lower priority scatter set are deleted. The priority is based on the Priority column of the Select scatter sets to merge spreadsheet. The Move up and Move down buttons can be used to adjust the priority of the scatter sets when this option is selected.
- Maintain triangulation - The triangulation of the original scatter sets is maintained. New triangles are created to connect the original scatter sets into a single, merged scatter set.
