View and Configure Plane and Trace Properties

Plane properties can be viewed by selecting any existing plane on the 3D image in the Image Viewer. When a plane is selected, its properties display in the Property Panel.

Note: Not all properties display for every plane.

Activity Steps

1. Left-click a plane in the Main Canvas.

   The plane properties display in the Properties Tab of the Property panel.

2. Configure the following options as required.
   • Appearance field group:
     • Name
     • Show Fitted Plane – Whether to display the plane in the Main Canvas. Select from True or False.
     • Colour
   • Attributes field group:

   Note: Options in this field group cannot be edited.

   • Dip – Dip amount in degrees.
   • Dip Direction – Dip direction in degrees.
   • Centroid E – Easting (X) coordinate of the centroid of the discontinuity.
   • Centroid N – Northing (Y) coordinate of the centroid of the discontinuity.
   • Centroid RH – Height (Z) coordinate of the centroid of the discontinuity.
   • Persistence – Maximum chord length, or persistence of the discontinuity, in metres.
   • Weighting – Weighting applied as the result of the Terzaghi sampling bias selection.
   • End To End Length – Sum of the distances between each point that forms the discontinuity.
   • Custom field group:
     • [Schema Entry] – Entries in the current schema. See Schemas.
   • Plane Fit Quality field group:

     Note: Options in this field group cannot be edited.

     • Plane Displacement – Standard deviation of the points that form the plane from its centroid.
     • Plane Orientation – Standard deviation of the orientation of the facets that form the plane.
     • Number of Plane Points – Number of spatial points used to fit the plane.
   • Terminations field group:
     • Start Terminated – Start point of the trace that terminates against the structure. Select from True or False.
     • End Terminated – End point of the trace that terminates against the structure. Select from True or False.
