This panel can generate point, line, rectangle, triangle or hexagon features inside a polygon.
In order to use this panel, you need to Select an output GIS layer and select a polygon on the map where the new elements will be created in.
Method: Depending on the geometry type of the output layer 7 methods area available:
| 1. | Point type output layer |
| a. | Points in Rectangular net |
| b. | Points in Triangle net |
| c. | Points in Hexagon net |
| 2. | Line type output layer |
| a. | Line segments in Rectangular net |
| 3. | Area type output layer |
| a. | Rectangles |
| b. | Triangles |
| c. | Hexagons |
Position X: easting coordinate of the starting point (southwest corner) of the feature generation.
Position Y: northing coordinate of the starting point (southwest corner) of the feature generation.
Width: horizontal (easting) size of the generated feature or the horizontal distance between points.
Height: vertical (northing) size of the generated feature or the vertical distance between points.
Direction: rotates the generated features around the starting position in degrees.
Inside the polygon: a switch to generate feature only within the selected polygon.
Save: this button saves the generated features into the selected GIS output layer; otherwise it will be displayed on the map, but only temporary.
