The following settings can be used to customize the grid design on the General tab:
Grid Spacing – The specified distance between Locations Markers. The value must be an integer between 5 and 1000, the default value is 50. Please note: A smaller spacing on a large site will take more time to generate and may cause response issues.
Font Size – Users have three choices, Small, Normal, Big. Normal is the default value. Small can be used with smaller grid spacing values, while Big can be used with larger grids spacing values.
Depth – Indicates how the vertical distance of “cutting/filling” should be calculated and displayed. Note: Landscape locations will not report any difference between the three options as they do not have any subgrade and the topsoil cut is filled at the same depth.
- Existing to Finished – Calculates depth as the distance from the existing surface to the proposed finished surface. This does not account for subgrade or topsoil.
- Exiting to Subgrade - Calculates depth as the distance from the existing surface to the proposed subgrade surface. This will account for subgrade, but not topsoil.
- Exiting to Subgrade (consider topsoil) - Calculates depth as the distance from the existing surface to the proposed subgrade surface and accounts for topsoil that is removed and/or replaced.
Include Location Marker – The location marker (cross mark) designates the location of the elevation value. This setting Indicates whether the location marker should be displayed. When turned off the beginning of the elevation value (text) is placed al the location of the elevation.
Include Undisturbed Values – This indicates whether to display the “0.00” values where the surface has not been disturbed. Excluding these values (graphics) can increase performance and create a better visual when there are large amounts of undisturbed areas on the site.
The following Colors can be set:
Cut Color – The color to use for the Location Marker and Depth text designating cut locations
Fill Color – The color to use for the Location Marker and Depth text designating fill locations
Undisturbed Color – The color to use for the Location Marker and Depth text designating undisturbed locations
