[IDV #AZA-630262]: IDV - reset level of Altitude plan view and 3d relief displays

Hi Stu-

> Institution: UNAVCO
> Package Version: 1.3 beta 2
> Operating System: linux
> Hardware Information: usual
> Inquiry: It appears that plan views of Altitude and 3D relief maps of 
> altitude are always set at the
> bottom of the wireframe box -- even when the
> bottom of the wireframe box is 500 km below the surface, to plot earthquakes.
> 
> A workaround is to set the bottom of the wireframe box at 0 km minimum; you 
> can still plot and see the earthquakes -- but then clipping at the wireframe 
> box does not work, which we need to
> remove earthquakes outside the area.
> 
> WMS images have a display control to reposition the image in the wireframe 
> box. It would be good to do the same for altitude plan views and 3D relief 
> plots.

It's on our list of things to do. Not sure when we can get it done.  If
you'd like to take a stab and contribute it back, that would be great.

The code is mostly all there.  The sticky issue is when to show the slider
because a field can be 2D alone (which is when you want it), or it can
be 2D draped over topography.  You'd also have to account for the case
where the user changes the parameter to a 3D field and then you'd have to
reconfigure the display control window to show the level selector.
