  7. View or edit charge decks and intervals using the following two tabs:

    • Charge plan
      The Charge plan > Primers sub-tab displays the primers associated with the selected holes.

      The Charge plan > Decks sub-tab displays planned charge products in the selected holes.

      You can view the charge rule used to create this charge plan by clicking Open rule.... If any changes to the hole or charge rule are made, you can reapply the charge rule by clicking Reapply.

      To modify the charge products in the Decks sub-tab, use the following operations.

      • To move a primer, middle mouse click the round paddle representing the primer. Hold the middle mouse button and drag the primer to its new location.

      • To modify a charge deck, middle mouse button click the square paddle representing the top or bottom of the deck. Hold the middle mouse button and drag the paddle to adjust the length of the deck.

      • To add a charge deck, press the button, and select the correct product from the drop down list.

      • To remove a charge deck, select that deck in the table and press the button. Alternatively, drag one of the paddles all the way to the top or bottom of the deck, effectively creating a deck length of zero. This will delete that deck from the charge plan.

      • To modify a deck so that it adjusts its length to suit the current length of the hole, select that deck and click Fill selected. This will ensure that the selected deck is modified such that the total deck length is the same as the current hole length.

      • To move an entire deck, first change the selection mode to edge selection . Then drag a box to select the deck you wish to move. A new triangular paddle will appear. Use the middle mouse button to drag this deck to its new location.

    • Intervals


      When viewing in the Intervals visualisation mode, the view will show a series of square paddles to enable direct manipulation of each interval on the hole.

      Tip: Add any surfaces used to create the intervals to the view to aid with accurate manipulation of the intervals.

      To modify the length of an interval, middle mouse click the paddle representing the top or bottom of the interval. Hold the middle mouse button and drag the paddle to its new location.
