New Virtual Line dialog box
New Virtual Surface dialog box
New Analysis Exporter dialog box
This dialog box is used to create new virtual lines or virtual surfaces via the Line and Surface Tool or exporters via the Echogram menu, while a single beam or multibeam echogram is displayed. Note, to create a new Dataflow window object (which includes dataflow object, virtual variable, virtual surface or exporter) use the Dataflow Toolbox.
New Virtual Line/Time Series

- On the Line and Surface Tool list, select New Virtual Line/Time Series.
- Under Select operator. use the Filter to find and select an operator.
- Click OK.
- On the Operands page, check the Operand(s) and/or add required operands.
- On the Name and Notes page, enter Name/Dynamic name and Notes.
- Configure virtual line's or time series' other properties.
- Click OK.
New Virtual Surface
- Display a multibeam echogram.
- On the Line and Surface Tool list, select New Virtual Surface.
- Under Select operator use the Filter to find and select an operator.
- Click OK.
- On the Operands page, check the Operand(s) and/or add required operands.
- On the Name and Notes page, enter Name/Dynamic name and Notes.

- Click OK.
New Analysis Exporter
- Display a single beam echogram.
- On the Echogram menu, select Export, New Analysis Exporter...
- Under Select export type, use the Filter to find and select an operator.
- Click OK.
- On the Operands page, check the Operand(s) and/or add required operands.

- Click OK.
Notes:
- Some operators may be optimized for multi-threading.
- Greyed-out operators are unavailable but their description can be viewed.
- When an operator requires two or more operands for input, only pings with the same ping geometry will be used to create the virtual variable. See Using multiple operands for more information.
