Synchronise data selections

Right-click on a layer in the Display Pane and select a Sync Selection option to synchronise your data selections between different (Vizex, Chart, and File Editor) views of the same data.

To synchronise the selections in multiple layers, select those layers in the Display Pane and choose an option from the Sync Selection tool menu.

Option   Description
None Sync Selection options for the displayed data are turned off. Selections are not being sent or received.
Send When data selections are changed and Sync Selection Send is enabled, those selections are sent if the same data is open in another synced view.
Receive When someone else has changed the data selection in another synced view and Sync Selection Receive is enabled, the selections in the current view are updated.
Send & Receive Both Sync options for the displayed data are turned on. The current view is sending selections out and receiving selections in.

For example, a ClosedStereonet chart can be selection synchronised with Vizex whenever the same file is loaded in both windows. This makes it easy to click a structure in either window and see it highlighted in the other, allowing trends or errors to be more easily identified in the real world.

Data selections can only be sent and received between synchronised layers that exist in different instances of Vizex.
