This sub-report applies to various report types, including body, chassis, loads etc. Each report type can have different settings for its Spaced sub-report.
After selecting Show Evenly Spaced Outlines to enable this element, you can select from among the available features.
- Use Simple Body Outline is available only on the discrete and spaced Body Outline reports. It uses the outlines defined in the vehicle's Body Outline (Plan) outline type instead of those in Body Detail (Plan).
- The Label Text display option is available only on the Annotation report. Leave the Label Text field blank to display the vehicle name; the text - Path Number - will automatically appear in the edit box.
- Nominal Spacing for the outlines will place outlines at the closest stored position after the specified distance. This setting is recommended for the greatest accuracy, as Insert Outlines At Exact Spacing can introduce inaccuracies where vehicle orientation is interpolated.
- Show Driver/Pilot displays an icon representing the driver's location. Note that the position of the driver can be adjusted in the vehicle details.
- Layer selection cannot be used if you are using a layering convention. Otherwise, you can select from the existing layers or specify a new layer for the report.
- Line Type and Colour controls provide a wide range of selections. If you want a Colour other than the 255 listed, select Custom and click on the colour swatch to select from a colour chart.
AutoCAD Only
The pen numbers directly correlate with AutoCAD's pen numbering system (colour indices in later versions). If you select a custom colour that does not correspond to a defined pen colour, it will be treated as TrueColour.
- For Line Weight, 0.0 mm is the default, and forces the thinnest possible line. Wider lines are drawn symmetrically about the centreline.
Note: Variations in line weight are only visible on printed output or in a print preview.
- Fill provides a solid fill for the body outlines.
