Profile Entities Vista

Product Documentation
Intermediate

Use this vista to view and edit numeric data about curves and tangents at a PVI or for a specific sub-entity in a profile.

If PVI Based is selected in the Profile Layout Tools, the vista displays PVI data. If Entity Based is selected, the vista displays entity data.

Use the Profile Entities vista to navigate through all entities that make up the profile. You can select an entity in the Profile Entities vista and then edit it in the Profile Layout Parameters dialog box. Attributes in the Profile Entities vista and Profile Layout Parameters window are automatically updated as the profile is edited.

If design criteria has been applied to the profile, a warning symbol is displayed next to sub-entities that violate the specified design criteria. For more information, see Viewing and Correcting Profile Design Criteria Violations.

The display can be filtered to show a selected range of entities along a profile. See Selecting Profile Subentities for more information.

The Profile Entities vista is like a spreadsheet. Each row represents a profile entity and each column represents an attribute for that entity. You can resize, move, and copy columns.

The first column (No.) is pinned and always displayed. It does not move when you use the scroll bar.

Two column configurations are available: default and criteria-based design. To switch between the configurations, or to create your own configuration, right-click a column heading, and click Customize Columns.

This window remains open when you grip edit the profile or enter another command. The window closes when you either delete the currently selected profile, click the X button, or click Profile Grid View on the Profile Layout Tools.
