Editing Sample Line Properties

Product Documentation
Intermediate

When you create a sample line you can specify properties to control the sample line’s content and format.

For example, for an existing sample line group, you can use the Sample Line Properties dialog box tabs to apply major changes to a sample line by changing general properties:

  • Information. Specifies the sample line’s name, text description, and object style. By changing the style here, you instantly change the sample line’s displayed appearance.
  • Sample Line Data. Specifies the sample line’s group name, associated alignment, station information, and whether the sample line locks to the station. Also, you can specify the label style. By changing the label style here, you instantly change the sample line’s displayed appearance.
  • Sections. Specifies the properties that draw and manage the section associated with the current sample line. For any sample line, you can also change its style.
  • Section Views. Specifies the properties that determine which section views are created from the current sample line.
Note

Sample line properties display and specify data only about that sample line. Sample line group properties display and specify rules for creating sample lines by range of stations or from corridor stations.
