The context menu opens.
2. Select the Delete hidden stop events entry.

1. Right-click the stop axis.
The context menu opens.
2. Select Delete unassigned stop events.
3. Confirm with OK.

The context menu opens.
2. Select Delete unserved stop events.
3. Confirm with OK.
Unserved stops are no longer displayed.
Merging duplicate stop events
For a clearer overview, you can merge stop events that occur more than once in the stop sequence to a single stop event.
1. Right-click the stop axis.
The context menu opens.
2. Select Merge duplicate stop events.
3. Confirm with OK.
All stop events that occur several times within the stop sequence are only shown once.
Inverting the order of the marked stops
1. Hold down the Ctrl key while marking the stops in the stop axis whose order you wish to invert.
2. Right-click the marking.
3. In the shortcut menu, select Invert order of selected stops.
The order of the marked stops is reversed.
Tip: Alternatively, you can also change the order of stops directly in the Timetable lines: stop sequence window. In the list of stops, mark the desired stops by pressing the Ctrl key, then right-click the selection and select Invert order of marked stops from the shortcut menu. |
Removing zigzags from the course of marked stops or all stops
You can remove zigzags from the order of stops of selected or all stops. Visum then removes all zigzag courses iteratively. Visum does carry out the deletion of a zigzag course if this would result in a new zigzag course elsewhere.
1. If necessary, mark the stops in the stop axis at which you want to remove zigzags while pressing the Ctrl key.
2. On the shortcut menu, select Remove zigzags of selected stop events or Remove zigzags if you have not selected any stops.
The zigzag courses are removed.
Displaying stop events in single or double rows
You can display stop events in single or double rows. The double row display is, for example, necessary if you want to display arrival and departure times at stop events in separate rows in the tabular timetable. If you choose a double row display, in the Edit sequence of stop events window, the circle representing the stop event is then marked with two lines instead of one (Fundamentals: Editing the stop sequence manually).
1. Right-click the name of the stop event you want to show in double rows.
The context menu opens.
Note: Depending on the current display format single or double row, the respective other display format is provided as an option. If both display formats are contained in the selection, both options are displayed. |
2. Select the desired entry.
3. Confirm with OK.
Depending on the selection, the circle representing the stop event is shown with one or two vertical grid lines. In the tabular timetable, the stop event is displayed in one or two rows in the course of the vehicle journey. The double row display is, for example, needed to display arrival and departure one below the other at the stop.
Split stop event
In some views, it might be required that you do not limit the display to line route items that are only assigned to exactly one stop event. In such a case, you can split a stop event, creating a so-called twin stop event. In this way, you can, for example, issue connection situations with output of arrival or departure times at other stations. To do this, move the destination station of the connecting line between the two stops of the transfer stop and make appropriate allocations (Fundamentals: Editing the stop sequence manually)
1. Right-click the name of the stop event you want to split.
The context menu opens.
2. Select Split stop event.
3. Confirm with OK.
The circle representing the stop event is divided into two halves by a dashed line. You can organize other stops around the two semicircles by moving the stop events between the two semicircles.
Selecting all stop events with the same stop
Stops or stop points may occur several times within a stop sequence, e.g. if serviced several times. You can select the stops or stop points that occur multiple times.
1. To do so, right-click the name of the stop event, for which you want to select all other occurrences in the stop sequence.
The context menu opens.
2. Then click Select all stop events with same stop.
All occurrences of the stop or stop point are displayed on the stop axis in red, with a red grid line background.
