As well as viewing WCI data profile by profile, you can view the data in sequence using the playback controls on the Water Column toolbar. (These work in a similar fashion to the playback controls in the Side Scan Editor.)
To scroll automatically through the data:
1. Click on the Plan View window.
2. Click First Profile on the Water Column Data toolbar to select the first profile visible in the Plan View.
3. Click Start playback to start scrolling the data.
HIPS will move up the track line, profile by profile, changing the view of the water column data, until it reaches the last profile loaded in the Plan View.
4. Click Reverse playback to scroll back down the track line.
5. Click Stop playback to pause the scrolling.
6. Click Last Profile to reset the view to the last profile loaded in the [plan View.
Playback is not available when data is stacked.
