Stop chainage

Enter the last chainage in the range of chainages to process.

Base layer

Select the natural ground layer

Batter layer

Select the layer that was generated using a template.

Initial destination layer

Select the first layer on which to create generated cross-sections. This layer will be used for the first layerwork definition. Subsequent layers will be used for subsequent layerwork definitions. For example, if you specify Layer 3 as the initial layer and there are three layers in the layerworks definition, then layers 3, 4, and 5 will contain the generated cross-sections. These layers will be renamed to the Layerwork descriptor value specified in the Template Editor, if they were not renamed manually.

Include outside points from Batter layer for:

This option is used to include points in the batter layer cross-section that lie outside the layerworks in the generated layer. See the illustration below.

None:

Only Last Layerwork:

Only Last Layerwork Stepped:

All Layerworks:

Step in Fill Only

This option is only available if the Only last layerwork detail - stepped option is selected. If this option is selected, the layerworks will only be stepped when in fill. In cut situations a box cut, with a width equal to the first layerwork in cut, will be created.

Try to intersect with batters: Left and/or right

This option is not available if the None option is selected. If one of these options is selected you must specify a ground layer. Select these options to have the routine try to intercept with the batter slopes on the respective sides.
