I experienced a power failure and the computer shut down. After restart the globe visualization will not rotate and in unclear. The text portion is fine. Anyway to reload the visualzation portion?

When you say \"is unclear\", what do you mean? What does the globe look like? Does the text portion (the bottom of the graphic screen) change as it should with each timestep, CPU time increase?

The text is clear, the CPU time is running; but the clouds are large square pixels rather than the smooth clouds that they were before the shutdown.

Ahhh. Now I understand. There are hotkeys in the visualization for this. If you hit the \"H\" key while the visualization is running, you will see a bunch of other hotkeys possible. Use the \"S\" key for a smoothed cloud representation, use the \"U\" key for the unsmoothed (blocky). Somehow it must have gotten reset to unsmoothed. Note that the cloud visualization is the most CPU intensive display on the graphic, and running it for long periods of time will take quite a bit of time away from crunching the model.
