Controls

The following controls are available:

Control Description
Style Select the chainage text style to use for the text.
Start Input a vertex on the reference line.
End Input a vertex on the reference line.
Vertex Input a vertex to create text for.
Notes
  • The chainage at the Start vertex is zero.
  • The reference line may be projected beyond the start and end vertex.
  • Vertices before the start of the reference line have a negative chainage text.
  • Chainage text objects are dynamically updated if any of the vertices are moved.
