Defining area behavior types

You can define, edit and delete area behavior types. These allow you to group properties that influence the walking behavior of pedestrian classes on areas, ramps and stairs. To assign the desired time interval, pedestrian class, their desired speed and the walking behavior to an area behavior type, use the relation Area behavior type elements. You allocate the desired area behavior type in the attributes of the area, ramp or stairs (Attributes of areas), (Attributes of ramps and stairs, moving walkways and escalators).

1.  On the Base Data menu, click > Area Behavior Types.

The Area Behavior Types list opens.

By default, you can edit the list (Using 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).

In the Attributes list, you can define new objects and edit attribute values.

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). In the Relations list box, to the right of the list on the left, you can show the coupled list with the attributes of the relation of your choice (Using coupled lists).

2.  Right-click in the list.

3.  On the shortcut menu, click Add.

A new row with default data is inserted.

4.  Enter the desired data.

4.  On the shortcut menu, click Add.

A new row with default data is inserted.

By default, you can edit the list (Using lists).
