In the spatial network view, you can display three-dimensional bars for links, connectors and main turns. The bar height is based on an attribute value and a scaling factor.
1. From the 3-D network view menu, choose Edit graphic parameters.
The Edit graphic parameters window opens.
2. In the navigator, select Display type.
3. Then click the display type Link bars.

Draw bars on links/ main turns/ connectors with attribute |
Here you select the desired link / main turn / connector attribute that you want to display as a bar. Note The selected attributes of the various objects should be matched to each other. |
| Draw bars on active links, main turns, and connectors only |
If the option is selected, bars are not drawn on passive objects. |
|
Also draw bars on closed links, main turns, and connectors |
If the option is selected, bars are also drawn on closed objects. |
| Display of negative values |
Specify display of negative values With negative height Objects with a negative attribute value receive a negative height With positive height Objects with a positive attribute value receive a positive height |
|
Use cross-section values |

|
Show reverse sides |
If the option has been selected, bars can be seen from both directions. You can, for example, improve the display of different link volumes for each direction because the bar of the direction with the lower volume contrasts with the reverse side of the bar with the higher volume. Reverse side style Click the field to specify the display of the reverse sides in a separate window. Here you can make the desired changes, just like on the Display page. |
|
Scaling |
Scaling of the objects is based on the following values: Maximum bar height Specifies the maximum height of the bars Manual scaling If this option has been checked, you can define the value range by bar: Enter the absolute values for the bar display. Automatic scaling If the option has been selected, the value range goes from 0 to the calculated Network maximum that has been determined from the attribute values and which is multiplied by a user-defined factor between 0.0 and 1.0. |
If the option is selected, the values are determined based on the two directions of the object. 
If the option is not been selected, the values are determined separately for each direction. In this case, depending on the view, perhaps only the bar of the higher direction is visible.6. If required, make additional settings on the Display page of the respective network object.
