To Add a Cross Section to a Segment in Electric

After you define a cross section template, you can add cross sections to segments. The segment must have an associated cross section.

To add a cross section to a segment

1. Display the Electric Explorer.
2. From the profile list at the top of the Electric Explorer, select the profile to use, for example Underground.

   Profiles are created in Infrastructure Administrator . Profiles control the containers that are visible in the Electric Explorer. For more information, see Create Electric Explorer Profiles.

3. Click Electric tab Cross Section panel Add Cross Section.
4. Select the segment. Press Enter to insert the cross section template on the segment or specify an origin point to position the cross section away from the segment.

   The segment must have an associated cross section model.

5. To position the cross section at an offset from the segment, specify the origin point for the cross section.
6. Specify the anchor point for the legend line.

   To snap the anchor point to the segment, use the OSNAP Nearest setting (enter NE on the Command Line). To draw the legend line perpendicular to the segment, simply press ENTER.
