Bar
All splines are created in the XZ plane by default. Here you define the height of the extrusion, i.e., the dimension of the bars in the Y-direction.
Sets the width of the bars along the X direction.
This is the additional distance that should be between the bars along the X direction.
The length of the bars is of course based on the data sets read out, but can also be evaluated relative to a reference value. The following modes are available:
-
Data range: In this mode you define a maximum length for the bars with the height value. This value is thus only reached by the largest numerical value of your data set. The bars with smaller values are scaled proportionally.
-
Reference: Here you define a scale via the height and the reference value. With a height of 100 cm and a reference of 100, a bar with the value 100 also appears exactly 100 cm long. With a height of only 50 cm, the same beam would be only half as long
Depending on the selected height mode, this sets the display length of the bars.
In the "Data range" height mode, use this to define the value from your file that should correspond to the entered height.
The base of the bars corresponds to a rectangle spline. Just like this basic shape, the beam can be rounded at its four corners. The intensity of this rounding can be entered here as a percentage. A rounding of 100% leads to a representation of semicircles at the ends of the bars.
The bars are usually displayed by extruding the spline base shape, provided you have selected this mode in the "Generate" settings. This value specifies the radius of the cover rounding.
