Introduction

Metview 4.4 introduces new icons for Cross Section Data, Average Data, Vertical Profile Data, Cross Section View, Average View and Vertical Profile View. Their functionality remain largely the same, but the concepts have been cleaned up, with a clearer separation between the responsibilities of the Data icons and the View icons. For example, specifying that the result should be plotted with a logarithmic axis should not be part of the Data icons, but should instead be the sole responsibility of the View icons, as it is a purely visual characteristic. Additionally, some parameters were not generic enough - for example, the Top Pressure parameter can also be used when the data are in model levels, and has therefore now been renamed to Top Level.

Migrating from Metview 3 is a little different to migrating from Metview 4.3, so both cases are treated separately here.
