Basic Usage

Open/Add a dataset

A dataset can be either local or remote (e.g. provided by a ViSUS Server).

Local dataset

Two options are available to open a local dataset in the menu File:

  • Open file... (open a single file, all the datasets in the current session will be discarded)
  • Add file... (add a dataset to the current session)

Remote dataset

Two options are available to open a remote dataset in the menu File:

  • Open URL... (open a remote dataset, all the datasets in the current session will be discarded)
  • Add URL... (add a dataset to the current session)

Save a scene

The current scene can be saved on disk using the File->Save scene... command. The scene will contain all the datasets and settings in the current session.
