Slice Field—Altering Subscripts
To change an array’s subscripts, edit the data that appears after the Slice: field at the top of the window. You can enter each array dimension by using one of the following formats, depending upon your programming language:
(slice descriptor,slice descriptor,...)
[slice descriptor][slice descriptor]...
The slice descriptor tells TotalView that it should display every strideth subscript from the lower bound to the upper bound, inclusive. If the stride is negative, TotalView shows every -strideth subscript from the upper bound to the lower bound, inclusive, in reverse order.
Each Slice field has a lower bound, an upper bound, and a stride. These elements are separated by a colon (:).
If you omit the stride value and its colon separator, the default stride value is 1. If you omit the upper bounds, the lower bounds value will be the upper bounds value. The lower bound must be less than or equal to the upper bound, and the stride cannot be 0.
