Site plans work similarly to header sheets although they also use some other items. When designing site plans, many of the items available under the General category are available and work the same as with normal borehole and header templates. The way that Site plans are setup for use is also very similar.
Site plans also have certain items available that are specific to site plans only.
Legend
The legend item is used as a key to define which items are placed inside of the mapping area within the site plan.
To insert a Legend Object into a merged cell area, follow the steps below:
- Select the merged area that the item is to be inserted into.
- Double click on the Legend item in the Site Plans section of the left-hand side tree view.
- The Legend Object will now be added and the text "[SitePlanLegend]" is inserted in the cell.
The legend item allows for some control over the way that the data shows:
- EntryFontSize - This is the size of the text that appears next to the example image.
- HeaderFontSize - This is the size of the header text that is specified in HeaderText.
- HeaderText - This is the text that appears at the top of the legend.
- HorizontalAlignment - Specify how the text will be aligned within the column.
- ImageHeight - Specify the height of the example images.
- ImageWidth - Specify the width of the example image.
Plan
The Plan item is the area of the template where the map will appear.
To insert a Plan Object into a merged cell area, follow the steps below:
- Select the merged area where the item is to be inserted.
- Double click on the Plan item in the Site Plans section of the left-hand side tree view.
- The Plan Object will now be added and the text "[SitePlanMainPlan]" is inserted in the cell.
Scale
The Scale item shows the scale of the mapping that is shown within the Plan.
To insert a Scale Object into a merged cell area, follow the steps below:
- Select the merged area where the item is to be inserted.
- Double click on the Scale in the Site Plans section of the left-hand side tree view.
- The Scale Object will now be added and the text "[SitePlanScale]" is inserted in the cell.
