Use this tab to specify the settings for point components of the surface objects.
3D Geometry
-
Point Display Mode
-
Specifies the points display properties:
- Use Surface Elevation: Displays the points at their actual elevation values.
- Flatten Elevations: Flattens or projects the points to the elevation value specified by the Flatten Points To Elevation property.
- Exaggerate Elevation: Scales the points by the factor specified in the Exaggerate Points By Scale Factor property.
-
Flatten Points To Elevation
-
Specifies the elevation used to flatten the points; available only when you set the Point Display Mode to Flatten Elevations.
-
Exaggerate Points By Scale Factor
-
Specifies the scale factor used to exaggerate the points; available only when you set the Point Display Mode to Exaggerate Elevation.
Point Size
-
Point Scaling Method
-
Specifies the scaling method, which, in combination with the Point Units value, determines the point symbol size:
- Use Drawing Scale: Specifies that the point size is a product of the value specified in the Point Units property and the drawing scale. For example, with a 1”=40’ drawing scale, using a Point Units value of 0.1 is the equivalent of using Size In Absolute Units with a value of 4’.
- Size Relative To Screen: Specifies that the point symbol size is a percentage of the screen size. The percentage value is specified by the Point Units property.
- Size In Absolute Units: The value specified in the Point Units property is the absolute point symbol size.
-
Point Units
-
Specifies the value used for the point size.
Point Display
-
Data Point Symbol
-
Specifies the symbology of the data point display. Click to select a data point symbol.
-
Data Point Color
-
Specifies the color of the data point. Click to select a data point color.
-
Derived Point Symbol
-
Specifies the symbology of the derived point display. A derived point is not a data point, but a calculated one (for example, from a surface smoothing operation). Click to select a derived point symbol.
-
Derived Point Color
-
Specifies the color of the derived point. Click to select a derived point color.
-
Non-Destructive Point Symbol
-
Specifies the symbology of the non-destructive point display. Non-destructive points are creating when adding non-destructive breaklines. Click to select a non-destructive point symbol.
-
Non-Destructive Point Color
-
Specifies the color of the non-destructive point. Click to select a non-destructive point color.
Note: If you specify a color for the points using the Point Display properties, it overrides the color specified on the Display tab. The default color value is set to ByBlock when a new style is initialized. When set to ByBlock, the color specified on the Display tab is used.
