Boundaries Tab (Corridor Properties Dialog Box)

Use this tab to create boundaries on corridor surfaces.

Use boundaries to prevent triangulation outside of the daylight line of a corridor surface and prevent them from being displayed, or to render a section of the corridor surface as a material style.

Note: A corridor surface must exist before you can create a boundary.

The properties table contains the following columns:

Name

Specifies the corridor surface names and their corresponding boundaries. Click next to the surface name to display its boundaries. To add a boundary to a surface, right-click the corridor surface name and click Add Interactively, Add Automatically, or Add From Polygon.

Description

Specifies the description for the corridor surface boundary.

Render Material

Specifies the render material style associated with the corridor surface boundary. Click this field to open the Select Render Material dialog box and select a render material.

Definitions

Specifies the boundary definition. Click [...] to open the Corridor Boundary Definition dialog box, where you can view and modify the boundary definition.

Use Type

Specifies the boundary type:

  • Render Only. Renders specified areas of the corridor surface with different materials (when rendering), for example, asphalt and grass.
  • Hide Boundary. Creates void areas or punches holes in the corridor surface.
  • Outside Boundary. Defines the outer boundary of a corridor surface.
