Calculating main turn lengths from shortest paths

If you allocate main turns from shortest paths, you can save the lengths of the shortest paths to a target attribute.

You can execute the functionality for all, all active main turns, or main turns marked in the network editor.

Editing all or all active main turns

1.  Select the main turns, whose lengths you want to determine, via

The selected main turns are active.

2.  In the Network window, right-click the Main turns button.

The Main turns shortcut menu opens.

3.  Select the Calculate length data from shortest paths.

The Calculate length data from shortest path window opens.

4.  Specify whether you want to calculate the lengths of all or all active main turns from shortest paths.

5.  Select an Attribute to which the lengths from shortest paths are saved.

6.  Confirm with OK.

The calculated lengths are saved in the selected attribute.

Editing marked main turns

1.  In the network, mark all main turns whose length you want to calculate.

2.  Right-click in the network display.

A shortcut menu opens.

3.  Select the Calculate length data from shortest paths.

The calculated lengths are saved in the selected attribute.

Tip: You can also call the function from the shortcut menu of the corresponding list and edit marked objects together.
