3D Views are the windows displaying the Grid Models. The visualization is controlled by the Project Tree item representing the View and their subitems. Each item has a set of properties that can be editied in the Property Editor.

Several views can be added to the same case by right clicking the case or a view in the case and select New View. You can also Copy and then Paste a view into a Case. All the settings are then copied to the new view.
Views of Eclipse models and Geomechanical models has a lot in common, but Eclipse views has some features that applies to eclipse simulations only.
Common view features
View properties

Grid appearance can be controlled from the Property Editor when a view is selected. This includes background color and z scaling. In addition, cell visibilty controls of inactive and invalid cells.
Visibility of the grid box with labels displaying the coordinates for the reservoir can also be controlled using Show Grid Box.
Cell Result 
The Cell Result item defines which Eclipse property the 3D View uses for the main cell color. The property can be chosen in the property panel of the Cell Result item. The mapping between cell values and color is defined by the Legend Definition  along with some appearance settings on the Legend itself. (Number format etc.)
Range Filters  and Property Filters 
In order to see different sets of cells, and cells inside the reservoir, Views uses cell filters. Please refer to [Cell Filters]({{ site.baseurl }}/docs/filters) to read more about them.
Info Box
The Info Box controls the visibility of the animation progress, the Case description box, and the results histogram displayed in the top right corner of the view.
The Animation Progress shows which time step you are viewing.

The Info Text shows general info about the case, the selected results, and some statistics.

The Histogram shows a histogram of the complete time series of the currently loaded Cell Result together with:
- The mean value ( a blue line )
- P10 and P90 ( red lines )

Statistics Time Range controls if a single time step or all time steps are included when statistics is computed. Statistics Cell Range controls if visible cells or all active cells is included when statistics is computed.
Grids 
Toggling Grids off will hide the grid cell geometry. This option is used to display geometry for faults and intersections. This feature is also available as a toolbutton called Hide grid cells.
Intersections 
Intersections are used to cut the geometry and show result values mapped onto this geometry. Please refer to [Intersections]({{ site.baseurl }}/docs/intersections) for details.
Activate items by clicking
Selected overlay items in the 3D view can activate a corresponding item in the Property Editor. This is implemented for Info box and result color legends. Please note that this feature is activated by clicking inside the texture/colored part of the legend.
Eclipse-only features
Cell Edge Results 
The Cell Edge Result visualization mode is one of ResInsight's special features. Its main use is to show the MULT(X, Y, Z) properties at the same time. This will show the MULT property values different from 1.0 along the correct edges of the cells. In effect this highlights the faults and makes it easy to verify all the MULT values in one go.

ResInsight supports all properties ending with X, Y, Z and X-, Y-, Z-. However, it is only the MULT property that ignores values of 1.0.
When selecting a result variable for cell edge, a second legend shows up in the 3D view showing the variation in values for this second property. Color legend management is available when selecting the Legend Definition item belonging to the Cell Edge Result item.
Separate Fault Result
Default result mapping on faults is using the result specified in Cell Result. If a different result mapping is wanted, enable the checkbox and select the result from the result selection dialog in the Property Editor. A second legend for the fault result is added to the view.
Simulation Wells
This item controls the visualization of the Eclipse simulation wells. Please refer to [Simulation Wells]({{ site.baseurl }}/docs/simulationwells) to read more.
Faults
Visualization of the faults in the model is controlled by this item. Please refer to [Faults]({{ site.baseurl }}/docs/faults) to read more.
