Display views - read-only views which manipulate and present scenario data, and can be though of as reporting scripts - are generally most useful when they support multiple scenarios for comparison alongside each another. | Display views - read-only views which manipulate and present scenario data, and can be though of as reporting scripts - are generally most useful when they support multiple scenarios for comparison alongside each another. | ||

These are analogous to ''local'' object declarations in single-scenario views - but these are declared before the ''$numScns'' for loop. | * ''localview'' objects, which are arrays of tool objects.
