How to compute `dip' for an attribute other than Z (e.g. rms amplitude).

Description:
        

Solution:
The following workflow uses the Basemap application and one horizon create.

1 - Copy the RMS attribute from the horizon to the Z attribute 
    of another horizon:

      Basemap > Tools > Horizon Operations > Single
      Select horizon and rms attribute for input
      Toggle on Bias and Scale
      Set units to ms
      Click Create New Surface and add a seismic horizon in the Project
      Surface Data Manager
      Enter Z for Attribute
      Set Property toggle to Time
      Click Apply or OK

NOTE: Some attibutes may need to be copied to the Z attribute of a newly 
      created horizon by gridding and then using the Surface Transfer 
      function available on the IESX Data Manager (bottom button in the
      Interpretation column).


2 - Create the dip attribute on the newly created horizon:

    Basemap > Tools > Horizon Functions
      Set the Mode toggle to Dip and toggle on the Polygon method
      Digitize the desired inclusion polygon and then MB3-break

    OR:

    Basemap > Tools > Horizon Operations
      Select new horizon and Z attribute for input
      Toggle on Dip
      Click OK

    Either way, you now have the Dip attribute for the `Z' of new horizon.
