Appearance

This page lets you tweake the appearance of Level COMMAND. You can control things such as screen brightness, various colors, and what data is shown on the map.

'Brightness' - to easily control the brightness, LC provides 4 options.

1. Off: does not change brightness.
2. Night: Sets the brightness to a low level.
3. Day: Sets the brightness to a high level.
4. Auto: Adjusts the brightness automatically so that at sunset it will dim.

'Color' - select main theme color.

'Aspect ratio' - Choose the best option for optimal display on your device(16:9, 16:10).

'Cut/fill color' - Set colors used for Cut/Fill map to Magenta/Green or Red/Green/Blue. (Magenta as cuts/Green as fills, or Red as cuts/Green as neutral/Blue as fills)

• The Magenta/Green color scheme may be easier to view for those users with red/green color blindness. The Red/Green/Blue color scheme may be preferred by users wanting a clearer delineation of “on grade” areas.

 

'Elevation color' - allows you to change which colors represent your highs and lows. (this is limited to selecting from a drop down menu)

 

'Current layer' - choose the layer you want to see in the map:

1. Elevation: This layer shows the original surface prior to any dirt being moved.
2. Design: This layer shows the design to be applied. This is the surface that you are attempting to reach at the end of the dirt moving process. Has the same color scheme as Elevation.
3. Cut/fill: Shows where the design requires dirt to be removed or added, relative to the original elevations. Coloring of this layer depends on the current Cut/Fill color (see above). The default is Magenta/Green.
4. As Elevation: This layer shows elevation changes as they occur (the As refers to "As Applied"). It shows a real-time representation of work progress. Has the same color scheme as Elevation. Contours are not shown for this layer type.
5. As Cut/Fill: Shows where the design requires dirt to be added or removed, relative to As Elevation - i.e., the remaining cut and fill to complete the design. Coloring of this layer depends on the current Cut/Fill color (see above). Contours are not shown for this layer type.

 

'Show contour lines' - Turn contour lines on or off on the map. Contour lines are not shown for As Elevation or As Cut/Fill layers, because they change too much.

 

'Show linework' - Turn linework on or off on the map.
