Orthogonal Projection dialog box

Use the elements in the dialog box to modify the parameters of an orthogonal projection.

Note: For enterprise industry models .

Element

Base line for orthogonal projection: P1 – P2

Click Graphic icon to identify another base line.

Type an Offset value or use the Graphic icon to shift the line.

Type a Radius value, if your base line is an arc.

Type an Azimuth value or use the Graphic icon to modify the orientation of the base line.

Point 1/ Point 2

P1: If the base element is an arc (radius is not null), you can use the Reverse icon to switch between long and short arc.

Easting/ Northing/Elevation

You can edit the coordinates in the dialog box or use the Graphic icon to select another point.

Point P

P: Point to be projected. Use the Graphic icon to select another point.

Projection

Coordinates of the projected point on the line.

Distance Measured/Calculated

Length of the base element, distance between P1 and P2. You can enter a measured value to calculate a factor for adjusting the resulting abscissa.

Abscissa

Abscissa value of the projection line (ordinate = 0,00).

Abscissa P1
