GGU-ELASTIC: "General legend" menu item

A legend with general properties will be displayed on your output sheet. Using the dialog box of this menu item you can alter the type of visualisation, if you have activated the "Show legend" check box.

You can define and edit the position of the legend using the values "x value" and "y value". You control the size of the legend using "Font size" and "Max. no. of lines"; where necessary, several columns are used. Additionally, you can define a background colour for the legend.

The fastest way to modify the position of the legend is to press the [F11] function key and then to pull the legend to the new position with the left mouse button pressed.

In the General legend you can, if wished, display information on the program (name and version), on the adopted standard and on the current file (name, path, time info). Additionally, the display of further information as e.g. hydraulic heave can be activated. Any project identification entered in the "File/New" or "Editor 1/Analysis options" dialog box will also be shown in the General legend.
