Existing icons will continue to work, but with the following limitations:
- They will appear in faded colours in the user interface
- Pressure Level Axis will be ignored; Linear will be used. The Cross Section View can be used to change this, and it could be advisable to set Interpolate Values to No.
- Top Pressure and Bottom Pressure will be ignored; Metview will generate its result using the whole data range. The Cross Section View can be used to change this
- To migrate to the new icon:
- To control the type (linear/log) or the range of the vertical axis, the use the Cross Section View
- Interpolate Values has a new default value of No (previously it was Yes). This provides a default result which is more closely based on the input data. If set to Yes, the plotting of the upper atmosphere plotting on a logarithmic vertical scale could show some artefacts from the interpolation
- The macro function name has changed from
cross_sect()
tomcross_sect()

Existing icons will continue to work as they currently do
- The new icon introduces the ability to select between nearest gridpoint and interpolated point
- The new icon introduces the ability to supply custom axis definitions
- To migrate to the new icon:
- Parameter Pressure Level Axis has been replaced by Vertical Scaling
- Interpolate Values has a new default value of No (previously it was Yes).
- Setting Vertical Scaling to Log is now a purely visual change and no longer affects the actual values computed; this fact is compensated for by disabling Interpolate Values by default
- Parameters Top Pressure and Bottom Pressure have been replaced by Top Level and Bottom Level
- The macro function name has changed from
xsectview()
tomxsectview()
