| Controls |
The following controls are available:
| Control |
Description |
| Style |
Select the chainage text style to use for the text. |
| Object |
Input a line, alignment or pipe. |
| Vertex |
Input a vertex to create chainage text for a selected vertex.
Note:
- Enabled when the Select vertex checkbox is selected.
|
| Select vertex |
Select the check box to select vertices that are not part of the alignment. A chainage at the location where the vertex is projected onto the Object is created. |
| Project start/end segments |
Select the check box to project the object in order to compute chainages for selected vertices. Applicable only when Select vertex is selected. |
|
| Notes |
- Use this method to create chainage text at key vertices along a line, alignment or shape (pipe).
- Lines and shapes(pipes) must be continuous for chainage text to be created.
- Chainage text objects are dynamically updated if the object is edited.
- The object may be projected beyond its start and end vertex.
- Chainage equations are considered when creating chainage text for an alignment.
