Feature Attributes

Feature Attributes the properties of a feature.  For more information, see Attributes.

Geometry

Area

Reports the area enclosed by the current feature. If the current feature is not a closed polygon, then it is assumed to be closed by connecting a straight line from last point to first.

Length

Reports the length of the current feature in project units.

Length_3D

Reports the slope length of the current feature in project units.

Section Area

Reports the area enclosed by the current feature in square project units. This is useful for smaller areas where you don't want to report in Hectares or Acres.

Points

Reports the number of points (vertices) on a feature

Min. X

Reports the minimum X coordinate of the feature.

Max. X

Reports the maximum X coordinate of the feature.

Min. Y

Reports the minimum Y coordinate of the feature.

Max. Y

Reports the maximum Y coordinate of the feature.

Min. Z

Reports the minimum Z coordinate of the feature.

Max. Z

Reports the maximum Z coordinate of the feature.

RW Area

Reports the right of way area of the current feature. It is possible to change the right of way width in the General Setup Dialog.

Properties

Selected

Indicates if the feature is selected or not selected.  See Edit - Select Features for more information on selecting features.

Displayed

Indicates if the feature is visible or invisible.  See the Feature Properties Dialog for more information on changing feature properties.

Connected

Indicates if lines are drawn between feature points.  See the Feature Properties Dialog for more information on changing feature properties.

3D

Indicates if the feature has elevations.  See the Feature Properties Dialog for more information on changing feature properties.

Breakline

Indicates if the feature will be used for breakline creation in the TIN.  See the Feature Properties Dialog for more information on changing feature properties.

Modeled

Indicates if the feature will be included in the creation of the TIN.  See the Feature Properties Dialog for more information on changing feature properties.

Negative Area

Indicates if the area of this feature will be subtracted when total areas are reported .  See the Feature Properties Dialog for more information on changing feature properties.

Surface/Vol. Boundary

Indicates if the feature will have attributes for surface area, slope and volumes.  See the Feature Properties Dialog for more information on changing feature properties.

TIN Boundary

Indicates if the feature will be used as TIN limits.  See the Feature Properties Dialog for more information on changing feature properties.

Format

Color

Indicates the color of the current feature.  See Edit - Modify Selected Features - Linetypes/Symbols for information on how to change this setting.

Linetype

Indicates the linetype of the current feature.  See Edit - Modify Selected Features - Linetypes for information on how to change this setting.

Hatch

Indicates the hatch of the current feature.  See Edit - Modify Selected Features - Linetypes for information on how to change this setting.

Symbol

Indicates the symbol of the current feature.  See Edit - Modify Selected Features - Linetypes for information on how to change this setting.

Symbol Angle

Reports the angle of the current symbol.  See the Symbol Size and Rotation Dialog.

Symbol Scale

Reports the scale of the current symbol.  See the Symbol Size and Rotation Dialog.

Surface Properties

Vol. Above

Reports the total volume above Surface A (the current terrain), below Surface B and bounded by the selected feature(s). This only applies to volume boundary features. See Volumes for more information.

Vol. Below

Reports the total volume below Surface A (the current terrain), above Surface B and bounded by the selected feature(s). This only applies to volume boundary features. See Volumes for more information.

Surf. Area

Reports the total surface area bounded by the selected feature(s). This only applies to volume boundary features. See Surface Properties for more information.

Av. Slope

Reports the average slope (of the slope of steepest descent) of the surface area bounded by the selected feature(s). This only applies to volume boundary features. See Surface Properties for more information. The slope is weighted by the plan area.

Av. Slope Dir.

Reports the average azimuth (of the slope of steepest descent) of the surface area bounded by the selected feature(s). This only applies to volume boundary features. See Surface Properties for more information. The azimuth is weighted by the plan area.
