GGU-UPLIFT: "Soil properties legend" menu item

A legend with the soil properties of the individual layers will be displayed on your output sheet. If you have activated the "Show legend" check box, you can alter the type of visualisation using the dialog box of this menu item.

You can define and edit the position of the legend using the values "x" and "y". You control the size of the legend using "Font size". The legend background can also be given a colour fill.

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.

  • "With depths"
    The depths of the individual soil layers will be shown in the soil properties legend.

  • "Legend coloured"
    The soil colours are displayed in the legend. Otherwise, they will be numbered.

  • "Automatic colours"
    The soils are assigned soils colours automatically by the program. If the check box is not selected, the soil colours individually defined using the "Soil colours" button will be adopted.

  • "Soil colours"
    You will see a dialog box, in which you can define your preferences. After clicking the button with the desired number you can assign each soil layer a new number or reorganise using the "Soil colours/Reorganise" command button. You can save your colour preferences to a file with "Soil colours/Save" and use them for different systems by means of the "Soil colours/Load" command button. In the lower group box you can also transfer the colour preferences to the Windows colour management dialog box, or vice versa, as user-defined colour preferences for example. You can read a further description by pressing the "Info" button.
