In ARCHLine.XP, the terrain is a 3D model calculated from a set of data representing terrain points. Using geodetic data, ARCHLine.XP automatically generates the 3D terrain model.
This data can be obtained directly from topographic tools or directly from ARCHLine.XP, which allows you to create terrain using points, planes, lines and contours.
You can also retrieve the 3D terrain model directly from Google Earth.
The Properties panel displays a list of all important property settings. You can change the current settings by clicking on any of the available fields.
Click on the Terrain properties in the Building - Properties menu to have a look at the properties.
Visualization
|
Colour |
Select the 2D representation color of the lines. |
| Line weights |
The Line weights property provides an option to display different thicknesses of the selected objects. The thickness of the lines remains constant regardless of the scale of the view. In the Print layout, line weights are displayed and printed in real units. |
| Line type | Select the 2D representation line type of the lines. |
| Layer | Select the layer that the lines placed on. |
| Draw Order | Select the 2D representation priority of the lines. The higher the value, the lower the lines will be displayed when several objects are overlapping. |
Additional properties
| Arc resolution | This value specifies the resolution at which the program displays arcs and splines that constitute the contours of the terrain when creating the 3D model. |
| Horizontal surface elevation | Specifies the base height of the terrain |
| Hide points and lines of the terrain in 2D within the areas of plateaus and roads | Cover them with a filled region of Plateau or road |
| Terrain surface material | Material for the terrain surface |
| Body material | Material for the terrain body |
| Plateau | It displays a dialog to set up the detailed plateau settings |
| Plateau material | Material for the plateau. if you create a new zone, this will be the default material if other material is not selected. |
Edit Plateau properties
It displays a dialog to set up the detailed plateau settings
Road Properties
| Cross section profile and materials | A cross section profile can be assigned for the road. The road cuts parts from the surrounding terrain according to its cross-sectional profile. |
| Road material | Material for the road surface |
|
Road width |
Specifies road width |
| Radius of rounding | Specifies the radius of the circle to use in rendering rounded corners. |
Road - Cross section profile and materials
It displays a dialog to set up the detailed road settings
You can define different materials for different parts of the road (e.g. sidewalk, green area, road, etc.). This new feature allows you to create more complex and lifelike roads on the site without having to make modifications later.
Elevation information
| Show heights | Display or hide height information |
| Elevation text style | Specifies the text style used to display the elevation values of terrain points. |
| Elevation text position | Specifies the position of the displayed elevation value relative to the terrain point. |
| Rounding Off, decimals or closest fraction (inch) | |
| Show numbering | Display or hide the numbering values of terrain points |
| Numbering text style | Specifies the text style used to display the numbering values of terrain points. |
| Numbering text position | Specifies the position of the displayed numbering of the terrain point relative to the terrain point. |
