Figure 382: Area Editor Dialog Box
Naming
Logical name of area, as an alphanumeric string consisting of 1 to 64 characters. Dell recommends that you provide a
meaningful name to the area to ensure that it is readily identifiable.
Location and Dimensions
Specify absolute coordinates for the lower left corner and upper right corner of the box that represents the area being
defined.
l Begin the measurement with the lower left corner of the rectangular display area that represents your building’s
footprint.
l The coordinates of the upper right-hand corner of the display area are the absolute values of the dimensions you
provided for the building.
Location settings are zero-based. Values range from 0 to (height -1 and width -1). For example, coordinates of the
upper right corner for a building that measures 200 ft. wide x 400 ft. in length, would be 199 and 399.
NOTE: The unit of measurement displayed as either feet or meters is based on your building settings. See "Building Dimension
Page" on page 798 for details about configuring building parameters.
You may also use the drag and drop feature of the Area Editor to drag your area to where you want it and resize it by
dragging one or more of the handles displayed in the corners of the area.
