GGU-FOOTING: "General legend" menu item
A legend with general properties will be displayed on your output sheet, if the "Show legend" check box is activated. You can alter the type of visualisation using the dialog box of this menu item (here shown for "Multiple footings" analysis mode).

You can define and edit the position of the legend using the values "x" and "y". You can control the size of the legend via the "Font size" and "Max. no. of lines"; if necessary, the legend is displayed in several columns. You can also define a background colour in some legends.
The fastest way to modify the position or size of the legend is to press the [F11] function key and then to either pull the legend to the new position or to move the sides of the legend to their new size 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, safety factor concept, design situation and on the current file (name, path, time info). Any project identification entered in the "File/New" or "Edit/Project identification" dialog box will be shown automatically in the General legend.
By activating the check boxes "With comment on bearing cap. failure" and "With comment on settlement" the use of the lines in the footing analysis diagram is explained ("Multiple footings" analysis mode). Explanations of the 1st and 2nd core dimensions can be activated when analysing a pad footing ("Rectangular footing"/"Circular/annular footing" analysis mode).
