Select Slices in the Object Class list.

Click on Create.

The Slicer window appears next to the savi3D Controls window (see the facing page) with the Standard button automatically selected.

The slicer is used to select a cross-section of the grid. The cross-section (Slice) can be any of three types: Standard, IJK, or Arbitrary. Each type of slice has unique properties which are discussed in the savi3D User Guide.

Move the slider up and down to position the slicer's plane at varying levels.

As the Slicer is manipulated, a red grid indicates the location and orientation of the slice.
For Standard slices, the entry field displays the Z value (altitude / depth) of the slice as it is currently shown.

Enter -17 in the entry field.

If the slice is set with -17 displayed in the entry field and the XY set (the default), a horizontal slice, 17 meters below the surface, will be 'cut'.
