This numerical data element will only be drawn if the segment contains a defined grade line. It represents the slope and the length of each section of the grade line.
It is possible to display various numerical data elements on the type of Slope, with reference to each of the project’s vertical alignments.
The dialog box shown below is then displayed A description of its characteristics follows.
Element Height: Represents the distance to the immediately preceding numerical data element, expressed in number of characters. This value may be expressed in two different ways:
· In number of characters
· In drawing units
When either of them is validated, the other value is automatically recalculated.
Num. Decimals: Number of decimals with which the different slopes of the longitudinal are to be represented.
Orientation: Sets the texts’ orientation. If Horizontal is selected, it will automatically be represented in a vertical manner should there not be enough space due to the text’s length.
Justification: Sets the position of the text in relation to the insertion point. There are three possibilities: Start, Center and End.
Terrain: The longitudinal profile to which the element refers should be selected. By default, 1 is equivalent to the profile contained in the segment. If any another number is selected, it will be related to the profile entered in the Terrain option.
Message: Text that will appear as the element’s title on the numerical data drawing.
