Cross Section Bands Query

Do Cross section bands follow the  same logic as Profile Bands??

 

I am using an OOTB style from the UKIE kit where editing the band style selects all three "bands".

 

I'm aimimg to get similar information (prof bands.jpg) as I can in Profiles but using Cross sections - is this possible??

No takers for this??

 

I'm getting a bit annoyed with these cross sections now.. may have to revert to using profiles instead...!!!!

Yes, Cross Section View Bands work along the same lines as Profile View Bands.

 

I think the three labels in one band was a solution to over come issues with jogged bands not looking right, but you can achieve the exact same look with three bands, each with their own information displayed, rather than one with all the info and two empty ones.

 

The trick is to set the jog height for the top band at say 3mm and the jog height for the rest of the bands at 0mm.

 

Section bands have a more limited range of label expressions to choose from but you should be able to achieve the same effect with what is available.
