Figure 3. Layer Properties form.

The Layer Properties form has the following options:

General Information

Layer Name: Displays the default name of the layer, which the user can edit.

Layer Visible: Checking this box allows the layer to be seen in the 2DH View, and has the same effect as toggling the layer by turning on/off the light bulb.

Show Grid: Checking this box displays the grid of the layer. If it is checked, the Grid Line Options are enabled for styling the grid.

Show in Legend: Checking this box displays the layer on the legend (e.g., Salinity).

Color Ramp Settings

Automatic Range: Checking this box causes EE to use the minimum and maximum values from the model, and disables the fields of Min. Value and Max. Value

Auto-Scale with View: Checking this box, EE will automatically take the minimum and maximum values from the viewing zone in the model domain. For example, when the user moves the model domain or zooms in/out, the minimum and maximum values are updated and displayed on the legend.

Min. Value: This shows the minimum value of the layer; Max. Value: This shows the maximum value of the layer. The user can enter values for these fields unless the Automatic Range is unchecked.

Legend Precision: This is used to set the significant figures for the minimum, and maximum values displayed on the legend. As default, EE sets F2 for this field. However, the user can change this by double-clicking on the box and the Number Format form will be displayed as shown in Figure 4. The user can change Decimal Digits by entering a number or using the Up and Down arrows (e.g., 0 - integer number, 1 - one decimal digit, 2 - two decimal digits, etc.,).

Color Options

Reverse: Reverses the display of the color ramp

Color Ramp: The user can displays values of the layer with options of color ramp from the drop-down list. The options available are shown below. Options such as Viridis and Plasma are provided to represent certain data types more accurately. This saturation/lightness changes linearly and is colorblind-friendly.
