This application allow us to edit terrain’s cross section profiles (tra files), tunnel cross section profiles (tri files) and also works with points cross section profiles (trs files) which we can use to extract a cross section profile from the points and make precise adjustments with the tools provided by the application.
Once we run the application, we’ll see something similar to this:
Along this document we are going to detail each of the parts, as a general overview we can distinguish multiple sections in the application’s interface:
·Title bar: At the top, the orange bar. The application’s title appears at the left side. To the right we can find some options: Settings, Help and About us. Further to the right we have the usual window’s controls: minimize, maximize/restore and close.
·Toolbar: Just under the title bar. It allow us to manage the state of the view and to access to all the different edition tools.
·Cross section profiles Panel: Under the toolbar, to the left we can see a panel with the information of the active cross section profile. It’s possible to edit multiple cross sections simultaneously, in which case this panel will only show the information of the active one.
·CAD View: The application provides a CAD view in which the profiles will be represented as polylines, it also allow us to draw custom polylines and take measures.
·Navigation bar: Under the CAD view is the navigation bar that will allow us to move from one station to another on the cross section profiles.
·Status bar: At the window’s bottom, the orange bar. It provides general information like the cursor coordinates in the drawing and information messages during the edition commands.
