Above Line Contour Direction
For the ‘Above Line Contour Direction’ option, the Contour Labels are created with the text parallel to the contour lines and in the same direction as the contour string.
The text is also raised slightly above the contour string.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”4512″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”4499″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=”5″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
Above Line Read from Below
For the ‘Above Line Read From Below’ option, the Contour Labels are created with the text parallel to the contour line and in the same direction as the contour string.
The text is raised slightly above the contour string.
Basically the text is always readable when looking at the screen, it will not be created upside down.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”4513″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”4500″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=”5″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
Centre Line Read From Below
For the ‘Centre Line Read From Below’ option, the Contour Labels are created with the text parallel to the contour line and in the same direction as the contour string.
The text is centred on the contour string so the contour string goes through the text.
The text will be readable when looking at the screen, it will not be upside down.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”4514″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”4501″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=”5″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
Line Removal & Centred Line Read From Below
For the ‘Line Removal & Centred Line Read From Below’ option, the Contour Labels are created with the text parallel to the contour line and in the same direction as the contour string, but can be rotated to read from below.
The text is centred on the contour string, but the contours are cut so that gaps are left for the text labels.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”4515″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”4502″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=”5″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
Above Line Facing Up Hill
For the ‘Above Line Facing Up Hill’ option, the Contour Labels are created with the text parallel to the contours line in the same direction as the contour string.
The text is orientated so that it faces uphill, so some text maybe upside down on the view or plan as it is aligned to the ‘up hill’ parameters.
The text is raised slightly above the contour string.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”4516″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”4503″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=”5″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
