To show the depth lines click on the Depth Lines
Settings button.
The following dialog will appear:

Four lines, parallel to the ground level, are displayed on the
longitudinal section, to assist users in graphical
editing. Line depths and colours are user selectable.
Click on the colour area to change the colour of the
lines drawn on the long section. The palette will
appear, and a different colour can be selected.

The new colours will be shown in the dialog.

Lines from the Minimum Cover group relate to distance
between ground line and top of the pipe, while lines
from the Maximum Depth group relate to depth to the
pipe invert. Checking the Enforce button will restrict
alignment point placement so that selected cover or
depth are maintained.

Depth guide lines
shown in the selected colours.
Textual Editing
Alignment point
properties can now be edited in textual format, so it
is possible to set exact chainage, invert level, cover
or depth for any point. Of course, for points that are
also part of a horizontal alignment chainage cannot be
altered, therefore the chainage field for these points
is
greyed out.
Points are
selected for editing using a graphical function
activated by a top button on the toolbar. Graphical
Insert and Move cad also perform selection, allowing
fine adjustments in textual mode after executing a
graphical function. The Selected point is marked by a red
arrow, just above the ground line.
