Area Grader Properties

 

Options

 

Level

Flatten the top of the area grader. Uncheck this option to follow the slope of the underlying terrain.

Amount

Area grader’s influence over the underlying terrain. If the amount is set to 0, then the area grader has no effect, while an amount setting of 100 causes the area grader to take full effect.

Height

How tall the area grader is. Use a positive number to raise the terrain, or a negative number to lower it.

Height taper

Smoothness of the transition between the top of the area grader and the base. Use a lower value for a more rounded edge, or a higher value for a steeper edge. Use 100 for a vertical edge.

Line style

Appearance of the area grader’s outline.

Edit points

Enable or disable point editing mode, which will allow you to modify the shape. See Editing Points for details.

Shape options

Save the current shape or load a new one. For more details, see Saving and Loading Shapes.
