Description

Define a new mining face.

How to Use

When this command is used to define a new face you are requested to select the required face segments on any available perimeter. In cases where segments from different perimeters overlay each other, the perimeter selected is the one on which the cursor pick is inside. A face may be comprised of a number of segments, as long as they are adjacent. A perimeter may also be comprised of a number of separate faces.

Identified faces are shown with a small filled triangle pointing inwards. If the perimeter containing the selected face is anti-clockwise, it is made clockwise automatically. When the face has been selected you must enter an advance rate per time unit for the new face. If an error has been made during face selection, the command deselect-face may be used to reverse the effects of face selection.

Selecting tonnage zones

The select-face command can be used to activate tonnage zones once they have been defined using the assign-results command. You are prompted for the extraction tonnage per time unit. After selection the tonnage zone is shown with filled squares to indicate it is active

Data selection is further controlled by the settings in the Snapping toolbar and the Overlay Selection dialog.
