Job – Allows access to the standard
JOB\ panel with full functionality.The
job that is shown on entering this
panel is the currently active job.
Select the job containing the points
from which the line will be created.
Type - Allows the selection between
the two ways in which a line may be
defined. The two choices are Start +
Endpoint and Start + Dst + Bg
(Startpoint + Distance + Bearing).
Depending on your selection different
menu items become available.
Start + Endpoint means that a Start
Point and an End Point have to be
given to define the line. Select two
points from the list or enter NEW
points.
Start + Dst + Bg means that a Start
Point as well as an Azimuth and a
Length have to be given to define the
line. Select a start point from the list
or enter a NEW point.
Height Def - Allows the definition of
how the heights of the points that will
be created are computed. The two
choices are Slope and Use Start Pnt
Ht.
Use Start Pnt Ht means all created
points are given the same height as
the start point in the chosen line.
If Type Start + Endpoint has been
selected, Slope means that all
created points are given a height that
is interpolated between the heights of
the start and the end point for the
chosen line.
If Type Start + Dst + Bg has been
selected, Slope means that the
height of the interpolated points is
determined by the entered Zenith
angle of the line.
Method - Allows a choice between
By Segments and By Interval and
defines how the chosen line is
segmented.
By Segments means that the
number of segments by which the line
will be divided can be entered.
If By Segments is chosen, the next
line in the panel reads Num of Segs
and a positive integer value may be
entered.
By Interval means that the interval at
which the new points are created
along the line can be entered.
If By Interval is chosen, the next line
in the panel reads Interval and a
positive integer value may be entered.
