The method allows all possible local disk solutions to be displayed as a surface in a single figure. Local disk solutions are found for all accretion rates, viscosity parameters, and radii. As an example, disk solutions are presented for two particular values of the viscosity parameter, 0.1 and 2.0. The existence of global disk solutions is also discussed.
