Profile View Height Page (Create Profile View Wizard)

Use this page to specify the profile view height and any split profile view settings.

Profile View Height

Automatic

Specifies the full height of the highest profile. Includes a buffer region above the maximum and below the minimum elevations.

User Specified

Specifies the height to which the profile view is drawn. If a profile extends beyond the user-specified value, it is either split according to the Split Profile View settings or clipped.

Profile View Datum By

Specifies how to place the datum for all profiles within the profile view.

  • Minimum Elevation —All profile datum values are based on the lowest datum value of all profiles in the profile view. This option works well for profiles that have relatively high variation in elevation.
  • Mean Elevation —Profile datum values are based on the mean value of all profiles drawn in the profile view. Profiles are drawn in the center of the profile view, which places an equal amount of space above and below the profile in the profile view. This option is useful in profiles that have relatively little variation in elevation.

Split Profile View

Note: The Split Profile View settings are enabled only if the Profile View Height is set to User Specified.
Split Profile View

Specifies that if the height of the profile extends beyond the User-Specified height value of the profile view, the profile view splits.

First Split View Style

Specifies the profile view style to use for the first split profile view segment. Use the standard controls to edit the style or create a new one.

Intermediate Split View Style

Specifies the profile view style to use for the all split profile view segments between the first and last segments. Use the standard controls to edit the style or create a new one.

Split Station

Specifies the horizontal location to split the profile view: previous major grid, previous minor grid, or exact station.

Datum Option

Specifies the vertical location to split the profile view: previous major grid, previous minor grid, or exact elevation.

Last Split View Style

Specifies the profile view style to use for the last split profile view segment. Use the standard controls to edit the style or create a new one.
