Area Display Options Dialog
When you insert an area display object on a oneline diagram, Simulator opens the Area Display Options dialog. This dialog is used to control various display and identity attributes of the area display object. The dialog contains the following fields:
Number
This dropdown box lists the number of all areas in the case. Use this control to associate the display object with the correct area.
Name
If you would prefer to search through areas by name rather than by number, use the Name dropdown box to see a list of names of all the areas in the case.
Show Record Type Prefix
Check this box if you wish to place the prefix Area before the name/number caption in the object.
Prefix Text
Specify additional prefix text to be added before the Record Type prefix.
The remainder of the choices presented on the Area Display Options dialog pertain to the object’s display appearance.
Style
Choose whether the display object should appear as a rectangle, rounded rectangle, or an ellipse.
Caption
Indicate how the display object should be identified to the user: by name, number, or both.
Width, Height
The dimensions of the new display object.
Click OK to save your selections and add the object to the oneline, or choose Cancel to terminate the addition.
