Hi Greg-

It will be an option in tomorrow's build for the individual sweeps,
but not the volume. If you want to try it now, create a file
controls.xml that looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<controls>
<control
id="dataxs"
categories="GRID-2D-*;IMAGE-2D-*;SWEEP-2D-*"
class="ucar.unidata.idv.control.DataTransectControl"
description="Data Transect"
label="Data Transect"
displaycategory="Cross sections"
properties="displayName=Data
Transect;windowVisible=true;autoScaleYAxis=false;"/>
</controls>
and put it in your .metapps/DefaultIdv directory.
Basically, I added the SWEEP-2D-* category. In my brief test,
it worked.
