Hello Rodrigo...
There are a few possibilities. First, you could install an OpenADDE
server on your computer where the AREA files are and use that with the
IDV's "Image" chooser (directed a "localhost"). Setup is a bit
laborious, depending on the Operating System.
Another approach would be to use the IDV's built-in formula "Make a
time sequence from single time grids/images". I believe this is
available in the current beta release of version 2.4. With this, you
would first use the Data Chooser to select your files, and then in the
Field Selector pick this formula (under the Miscellaneous category)
and select an appropriate display (Imager or PlanView). When you
click "Create Display", you will then be asked to create a list of the
data you want to put into your sequence.
There may be other ways, but these two come to mind first.
Best regards,
tom
