Delete Drivage

Use Delete Drivage to delete drivages. If you want to delete panels, then you will need to use the Delete Panel option.


Instructions

On the Underground menu, point to Coal Development, and then click Delete Drivage option

Select the method of deletion, that is, by group or by object.

(If a working layer was not defined prior to selecting this option, then the Set Working Layer panel is displayed first.)

Working name

Enter, or select from the drop-down list, the name of the working layer. The chosen layer will be set as the active working for underground coal operations. It does not affect the layer set through the Layer option (under the Design > Create submenu)

To create a new layer, enter the layer name. The layer name...

  • may contain up to 40 characters.
  • must begin with an alphanumeric character [0 - 9] or [a - z].
  • cannot include spaces.
  • can include hyphens [ - ], plus signs [ + ], underscores [ _ ], periods/dots [. ].
  • can include the special characters of ÁÂÃÀÇÉÊÍÓÔÕÚÜÑ that are used in the Spanish and Portuguese languages.

Description

Enter a description to further describe the contents of this layer. The description can be up to 80 alphanumeric characters and may include spaces. If a description is not entered, then a default description will be used instead. If the chosen layer already has an assigned description, the description will be displayed when the layer is selected. Existing layer descriptions can be overwritten.

To add to an existing working layer, the layer must be loaded onto the screen. If a working layer by the same name already exists in the currently open database, but has not been loaded, then you will be asked whether you want to select the layer or replace it.

Click OK.

You are then asked whether or not to delete the highlighted objects.

Upon confirmation, the drivages are the deleted and you are returned to the Select drivage object prompt.
