Attributes of stop signs and toll counters

The Stop Sign window opens when you insert a network object and have selected to have the Edit dialog opened automatically after object creation (Right-click behavior and action after creating an object).

Into the window, you enter attribute values for the network object. For network objects which have already been defined, you can call the window using the following functions:

  • ►  In the list of network objects of the network object type, double-click the row with the desired network object.
  • ►  In the Network editor, select the network object of your choice. Then, on its shortcut menu, click Edit.

The network object may have additional attributes. In the network objects list of the network object type, you can show all attributes and attribute values. You can open the list via the following functions:

In the network objects list of the network object type, you can edit attributes and attribute values of a network object (Selecting cells in lists), (Using lists).

The objects of this object type may have relations to other objects. This is why the attributes list is shown as part of a coupled list (on the left). On the Lists toolbar, in the Relations box, you can show and edit the coupled list with the attributes of the desired relation on the right (see below Showing and editing dependent objects as relation) and (Using coupled lists).

Note: In lists, you can use the  Attribute selection icon to show and hide attribute values (Selecting attributes and subattributes for columns of a list).

 If the option is selected, under each vehicle class a time distribution (Using time distributions) can be allocated in the list.

All vehicles of a vehicle class, which use a time distribution, adhere to their corresponding, chosen time distributions.

Vehicles without allocated distributions stop for one time step.

This attribute does not affect a vehicle that stops at a stop sign in a stop or parking lot. The dwell time distribution of the line is effective at the line stop and the blocking time distribution is effective at a parking lot. When the vehicle starts again, it does not stop at the end of the stop or parking lot.
