Specify Highlight Colour |
Click to modify the color of highlighted laser survey data within the demolition set or demolition package volume. Multiple colors can be used to highlight the demolition set or demolition package volume. Select a color from the color palette. The laser survey data is not highlighted as a solid color, the color is applied as a color ramp to the selected volume. If the highlight was to be displayed as a solid color, depth cues could be difficult for the user and the laser survey data could appear as a flat representation. As color ramps are applied to the laser survey data, some colors many not appear to contrast well with the laser survey data or other highlight colors. It is recommended that highlight colors are restricted to a limited discernible palette. |
