Layers in Models: Presentation Rules¶
Use this dialog to define project presentation for the various layers in roads (SFI), intersections (XFI), and construction pits (EFI).
Where to Find the Dialog¶
On the toolbar, select Settings Gemini Terrain..., then Layers in Models: Presentation Rules under Project Presentation.
Saving Presentation Rules¶
When you change the presentation rules in this dialog, they are saved in terproj.ini in the project folder. The changes are also saved in ter.ini in the INI folder. New projects retrieve the presentation rules from ter.ini. This means that the presentation rules in the last Gemini Terrain project become the project presentation for the next Gemini Terrain project you create.
Layer Type¶
In this field, you select the layer type. Roads, intersections, and construction pits can have up to six layer types:
- Gemini Theoretical
- Gemini Physical
- VIPS Theoretical
- VIPS Physical
- VIPS Miscellaneous
- Advanced Sections
Value¶
In this field, enter values that should have their own presentation rules. By using the dropdown menu for the value field, you can select predefined values.
To¶
To is used to set presentation for series, for example, that Gemini Physical layers 1–5 should have a green color. To set the presentation for a single value, set the From Value and To Value to the same, or omit the To Value.
Factory Default¶
Clicking Default retrieves a predefined standard for the program (factory default). This is hardcoded and cannot be changed by the user.
Setting Up a Presentation Rule¶
Procedure
- Select Layer Type.
- Enter a value for the layer in the Value field.
- Click Add...
- Define the presentation rule and click OK.
- Click OK in the main dialog to save the setup.
Layers Without Presentation Rule¶
The list contains all layers that have a defined presentation rule. All other layers will receive a standard presentation. This is shown in the Other: window and can be changed with the Edit... button if desired.
