2DV View Setting
An example of the plot is shown in Figure 1. Information about the current cell can be displayed (the yellow text box), as in 2DH View, by LMC on the cell. Many of the operations of this feature are similar to 2DH View.RMC on various elements of the plot (axes, title, legend) allows the user to edit and re-configure them.
A feature unique to the 2DV View is that different RMC positions on the legend will display a different form.
If the user RMCs on the top of the legend (highlighted in Figure 1 ), a 2DV View Setting form will be displayed.
Figure 1. 2DV View Setting.
If the user RMCs on the bottom of the legend (highlighted in Figure 2 ), the user can select Properties and Edit for the current parameter, choose Properties will open the 2DV View Properties while Edit will open the Data Extraction for 2DV View.

Properties
When Properties is selected the Layer Properties form is displayed as shown in the Figure 3.
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.
Figure 4. Color Ramp options.
Contour Options
Show Contours: Check on this box to show the value contours of the layer. If it is checked, the Settings and Export options will be enabled.
Settings: To set contour settings
Export: To export contour lines to a file
