Chapter 8. Menu - Scenes

Table of Contents

8.1. Time and Depth converted scenes
8.2. Additional transformed scenes



OpendTect supports multiple scenes, most of them opened using this menu. Scenes are independent windows within the main window: Each scene has its own tree and can be minimized, maximized, reduced or enlarged directly in the main window. The different scene trees can be move on top of each other and sorted as tabs, or completely separated from the main window (utility windows).

The cascade option will restore a default size for each scene and sort them starting on the upper left corner of the main window.

The tile option is a shortcut to maximize each scene by sharing the space of the main window equally:
If all scenes are maximized the active scene will be annotated on the left in the Scenes menu. Clicking on another one will toggle to it.

8.1. Time and Depth converted scenes

Time data can be displayed in the depth domain and depth data in the time domain in OpendTect.



This is done using a velocity volume and computing the new Z range (depth or time) based on the original Z range (time or depth respectively). Like in all transformed scenes all display elements are re-positioned on-the-fly.



For 3D volumes, on-the-fly transformations can be slow. Time volumes should therefore be depth converted (i.e. stored as volumes) via the right-click option of inlines and cross-lines in the transformed scene:



Please note that depth-stored volumes can be imported via SEG-Y by settings the appropriate tag in the SEG-Y import wizard.
