Add Pillar

On the Mining | Pit Design (Dynamic) tab, in the Constraint group: Click New Pillar | Add Pillar to add a selected polygon to define an internal pillar.

In Shrinking mode (Pit/Down, Dump/Up), a Pillar (internal) constraint will place the pit build area inside the constraint where it intersects with any pit lines. No constraint will occur if there is no intersection. In Expanding mode (Pit/Up, Dump/Down), constraints always expand the pit build area.

If not already selected, you will be prompted to select polygons to add as constraints.

Note: You can select multiple polygons using the CTRL + Click shortcut.

Alternatively, you can Digitise the required object/s using the button in the Selection Assistant toolbar. The Selection Assistant will close, providing access to the tools used to create the object.

Select the polygon/s for the constraint. Click Accept Selection. The constraint will be added to the design with the selected polygons.
