TRANSFORM_FILE
This command is used to specify a transform file to be read.

Widget:
- Select "Transform File" from the "File" menu. A file selection widget will appear. When you have made your selection, the specified transform file will be read.
Command:
Arguments : - FILE_NAME:
The full or relative path name of any compiled IVE transform file
Examples : - TRANSFORM_FILE = ~/trans/trans_model
Notes:
-
If the coordinate surfaces of your data are curved, you must first supply IVE
with a TRANSFORM FILE. Transforms map your curvilinear coordinates to a
rectangular Cartesian grid.
- The transform file name can also be specified
using the environment variable IVETRANSFILE (see Environment Variables).
- The IVETRANS environment variable can be used to specify a directory for the widget to search in (see Environment Variables).
- Refer to Writing Transforms for IVE for information on writing your own transform routines.
