Setting the display of flow bundle bars

You can display flow bundle volumes as bars. These bars are drawn over the corresponding standard volume bars and not next to them.

Note: You can insert flow bundle bars manually or automatically while calculating the flow bundle (Inserting a flow bundle).

1.  On the Graphics menu, click Edit graphic parameters.

The Edit graphic parameters window opens.

2.  In the navigator, select the Links > Bars > Display entry.

3.  Enter a bar.

4.  In row ScaleAttrID, select the Volume flow bundle PrT [veh] (AP) attribute.

Note: Flow bundle bars are displayed together with their reference bar. The following bars are considered reference bars:

  • Volume flow bundle PrT [veh] - Volume PrT [veh] (AP)
  • Volume flow bundle PuT [Pers] - Volume PuT [Pers]
  • Volume without PuTWalk flow bundle PuT [Pers] - Volume without PuTWalk PuT [Pers]
  • Volume flow bundle-TSys [veh] - Volume TSys [veh] (for PuT-TSys)
  • Volume flow bundle-TSys [Pers] - Volume-TSys [Pers] (for PuT-TSys)

If a matching reference bar exists, a query opens.

5.  In this case, decide if the graphic parameters of the flow bundle bars shall be automatically adjusted to the settings of the reference bar.

The new column for the flow bundle bar is inserted. The new column and the reference bar may include a reference note to the other bar in the Related bar row. The flow bundle bar is always displayed on the right side of its reference bar.

6.  Specify any further settings you need.

Notes: The settings are the same as those for link bars (Displaying properties via bars).

You should specify the same scaling for the flow bundle bar and for the corresponding reference bar.

In the preview only half width of the flow bundle bar is displayed in the upper section of the window so that the reference bar below remains visible.

7.  Confirm with OK.

The flow bundle bars are displayed according to your chosen settings.
