Use the DH-Plot > Trace Section on Plan menu option (DHPLSECT GX) to trace the outline of a section or sections on a plan map.
Draw a Section dialog options
|
Plan map name
|
The plan map on which to trace the section outline.
|
|
Section job/map name
|
The section geometry may be recovered either from a section job (file type ".ins") or from a section map. For multiple sections, it is more convenient to specify the job, since only one section is plotted on a map.

Plot section…
|
Select center lines(s) to plot the central trace of the section along its length. Select perimeter(s) to plot the outside boundary of the section, showing its width.
|
|
Colour
|
The colour of the lines used for tracing the section.
|
|
Line Type
|
The line type used for the trace.
|
|
Line Thickness
|
The line thickness for the trace.

Label

A descriptive label to print with the section. By default this is the "Description" defined in the "Setup" dialogs used when plotting plans or sections.

Application Notes
If there is only one section, and the swing is non-zero, the non-horizontal edges of the section will be plotted with a dotted line, and the trace of the bottom of the section will be plotted with a dashed line. The line thickness will be one-half of the entered value.
