Next we will add <b>point and image outputs</b>. This is done by menu entry //Edit parameters->Add point output// and //Edit parameters->Add image output// that again open dialogues for specifying how often (parameter "skip") and which component should be output. Point output is collected from a single point within computational volume and is stored into a text file. Image output comes to general output file that can be opened by [[http://gwyddion.net|Gwyddion]] open source software. A cross section in certain normal direction is output, selected as shown below. We will add a cross section in every direction, so we will call the dialog three times. | Next we will add <b>point and image outputs</b>.
