Description
This feature allows the user to add pre-defined scatter models that are contained in one of FRED's scatter catalog data files. The scatter models contained in the catalogs may be sourced from a commercial vendor or may be manually defined by the user in the Custom catalog.
The Custom scatter catalog is located in the <install dir>\Resources\Scatter Catalogs\Custom folder with the name "CustomScatter.dat". Scatter model definitions can be manually added to the Custom catalog data file using the formatting defined in the header of the data file. Once edited, the scatter models that were added will be available in every instance of FRED when using the "Add Scatter Catalog Scatterer" dialog and selecting the Custom catalog.
Navigation
This feature can be accessed by right mouse clicking on the Scatterers folder on the object tree and selecting "Add Scatter Catalog Scatterer".
