assign-cross-section ("acs")

See this command in the command table.

To access this command:

Using the command line, enter "assign-cross-section"
Use the quick key combination "acs".

Note: This command is only supported for use in the legacy Design window. Consider using other drive profile management tools for extruding drive profile shapes, such as extrude-strings.

Command Overview

Assign individual drive cross-sections along a string.

This command is used in underground mine design, for the purposes of generating cross-sectional perimeters in memory, anywhere along a drive control string. The control string must first be identified, followed by points along it where cross-sections are required.

The cross-section used is that selected by the last use of select-cross-section. Alternate use of select-cross-section and assign-cross-section therefore allow different cross-sectional shapes and sizes to be applied to a drive.

The imported cross-sectional perimeter is oriented automatically, perpendicularly to the control string if a snapped segment point is being used, or as a bisector if a vertex along the control string has been selected. If another orientation is required, the user should use the assign-end-section command.
