Output

The Roof, Floor and Solid tabs of the Generate Horizons/Solids form provide control over the wireframes you want to output, and the names and the colours of the output wireframes.

The Wireframe Properties options on the Generate Horizons/Solids form

Wireframe Type

Double-click (F3) to select a wireframe type.

Name Prefix and Suffix

Optionally, insert a prefix and append a suffix to the names generated from the Name field specified on the Input tab.

Code field

Optionally, select a field in the input file that will be used to populate the Code attribute of the output wireframes.

Code

Enter a character code that can be used to differentiate between this and other wireframes when a Code field has not been specified, or when values are missing in the Code field.

Colour field

Specify the name of a field which contains the values that will be used to colour-code the display.

You can choose to select colour values directly from the Colour field without selecting a Colour set. In this case, the values in the Colour field must be valid RGB, Hex, or Integer colour definitions.

Format Example
R,G,B 89,169,215
HTML Hex #59A9D7
Hex 0x59a9d7
int 5876183

Colour set

To map values in the Colour field to the colour values in a Colour set, double click (F3) to select the set that will be used to control the display colour. Right-click (F4) to create or edit a Colour set.

Colour

Double-click (F3) to select the colour that will be used when a Colour field or a Colour set is not defined - or when a value in the Colour field is either not valid or is not mapped in the Colour set.
