Updates in NP Landscape

Levelling Tools 2.1

We proudly present Levelling Tools 2.1! New functions are added, some functions are enhanced and limitations are removed!

New overall settings

  • There will be 2 menu categories and toolbars containing levelling tools - Levelling Tools, containing functions for designing and Levelling Tools II , containing functions for drawing management. Functions within Annotation are repositioned into the other 2 categories.
  • In earlier versions point elevations have been dependent of ucs and rotation settings. We have had to just rotate the text and not the ”+” in order not to spoil the relations between point elevations. In version 2.1 we have got ridden of these limitations. We are now able to use ucs and rotation in any way we want, without disturbing any relations or chosen settings.
  • Point elevations will maintain chosen rotations and positions when edited.
  • We will now be able to copy and paste elevation designs within or between drawings.
  • We can now choose whether point elevations shall relate to NP scale or not - this is set in the style of the point elevations.
  • There are now 2 default styles - one new for existing point elevations. We may now create styles with automatic attributes set - for instance point elevations from existing terrain may automatically get an underline!
