Display options for particles in View3D are similar to those in ViewPlan, including display by elevation or group. In the particle tracking submodel of prior to EE7.3, particles that reach the model boundary stick to the edge of the boundary as shown in Particle Tracks and Oil Spill Viewing Options#Figure 1. This is to show that the particles have left the model domain and are no longer being calculated. Another method now provides the user the option of allowing the particles to disappear if the the Hide After Exit check box is selected as shown in Particle Tracks and Oil Spill Viewing Options#Figure 2.
Figure 1. View3D: Oil spill still displayed after exiting model domain.

If the the checkboxes Show Oil and Oil Mass are both selected then the mass of the oil is displayed using a color profile as shown in Particle Tracks and Oil Spill Viewing Options#Figure 3.
