Apply constant +/- offset to a heightfield
Posted: Tue May 10, 2016 9:30 am
I'm pretty sure this isn't possible in the latest build, apologies if there's an option I'm missing.
I'd like to be able to apply a simple constant offset to all values in a heightfield. For example I'd like to lower my whole map evenly by 100m.
I do see there's a "vertical range" option and maybe it can do what I want but it looks to be more about changing the scale and proportion of the map and seems overcomplicated for the simple addition I'd like to do.
I feel there's merit in a having a much simpler friendly tool. Perhaps "Operations > Heightfield > Apply vertical offset ..." which opens a simple value entry box (with "raise"/"lower" radio buttons for extra user experience points )
edit: Perhaps extend it to "Apply vertical scale and offset" that performs a 'multiply then add' operation instead, to make a more comprehensive tool?
