Defining general properties

Tool(s): Properties of the bridge/civil engineering designer

Point display

Specify how station points appear in the Plan Preview.

Height of rectangle

Enter a value between 1 and 100 (in relation to the size of the window).

Width of rectangle

Enter a value between 1 and 100 (in relation to the height of the rectangle).

Cross-section label

Define how cross-sections are labeled in the graphics area. You can configure the program to display the individual polygon points without labels, with point numbers or with point numbers plus local coordinates.

More options

• You can display the reference point or the point of rotation in the cross-section.
• If you have selected the Show all routes in 3D preview option, the Isometric Preview displays all bridge and civil engineering components.
  Otherwise, only the component of the current route is visible.
• If you have selected the Align cross-section profiles with z axis option, the program aligns the cross-section profiles in such a way hat they are always perpendicular (i.e. parallel to the Z axis), even if you have defined a height curvature for the route.
  Otherwise, the cross-section profiles are perpendicular to the route profile. If there are different values for the longitudinal inclination, the program uses the average value.
