This page defines the plot settings for the section and detail areas for terrain strings long sections.
Some columns are not visible until you scroll right in the grid.
The grid contains combined settings for the section and detail area for terrain string elements.
the properties you can directly edit in the grid are:

The row headings, other than Chainage, can be changed by double-clicking them. This allows you to enter descriptive text for the row, which is displayed in the Long Section Setup as an aid to the data required for each particular line.
You can insert data parameters that are not already listed in the grid. Refer to the Long Section Storm Data help page to see how to insert a row in the grid.
Refer to the Long Section Storm Data help page to see how to delete a row from the grid.
Refer to the Long Section Storm Data help page to see how to move a row in the grip up or down.
Refer to the Long Section Storm Data help page to see how to link and unlink rows in the grid.
If you are creating a new sheetfile, there will be no terrain string longsection data. In this case, you will not see the Terrrain String Data grid, instead you will see a Create Terrain String Longsection Layout button.
Refer to the Long Section Storm Data help page to see how to create the terrain string longsection layout and initialise the data in the grid.
