The following input window appears for the mesh options. Display attributes for the mesh can be modified on the various tab pages (Mesh, Data, Structures and Contours):
On the dialog page "Mesh", colours can be preset that are used for the display of the mesh, this includes.
Colour of the mesh boundary (variable XSUSIRandPen)
Colour of the 3D boundary (variable XSUSI3DRandPen)
Colour of the markings (variable XSUSIMarkPen)
Colour of elements (variable XSUSIElemPen)
Node markers (variable XSUSIKoorMark)
Size of node marker (variable XSUSIKoorHeight)
Colour of the nodes (variable XSUSIKoorPen)
Colour of the water course systems (variable XSUSIStreamNetworkPen)
Colour of the 1D fractures (variable XSUSI1DKluftPen)
Colour of the elements in the 3D-view (no variable is set)
A colour changed in the options menu is only updated when the markings, the mesh boundary or 3D boundary are redrawn, or if a existing or new project is opened again. Changing the colour of these items within the current project is done more efficiently by right-clicking and using the context menu in the Project Manager view.
A changed colour of the element display or node display in the Preferences menu is only implemented when a new or existing project is opened, not for the currently open file. If the colour of the existing element or node display is to be changed, this is only possible via the menu item Layer → Change colour.
If a different marker type or marker size is to be used for the existing node display, this is only possible via the Object properties toolbar ((View Toolbars
Object properties).
File handling: Sorted saving
(Variable XSUSISaveSpeed)
To speed up the saving of the *.net and *.3d files, the sorting of some attributes can be switched off. To do this, the variable must have the value 1. If the attributes are to be saved sorted, the variable must be set to 0.
