3.2.17.6 Setting the segments

The last heading of the previous selection control, marked Segments, allows the user to define the color

sectors which will be displayed in the lower bar of the analysis window. These are used to divide the course

into distinct parts, which can be displayed on the linear map on the analysis window and in the reports, dealt

with in the next chapter.

The segments are positioned in the same way seen before for the finish line and the split points. For the

segments, though, it is necessary to specify additional information such as the name and type. After inserting

all the stretches which mark the segments, click on the Left curve (usually red) or Right curve buttons

(usually green) , then click on the corresponding stretches of track to assign the type.

The type/colour selected will be assigned to the stretch of track which is clicked on, then the user will be

requested to enter a name to identify the segment. As the default option, the segments are identified with a

number whose value is increased from time to time, but it is also possible to specify a personalised name (by

left-clicking near the text box with the number on the left of the OK button). Press OK to assign the name to

the segment.

curva=curve

As the default setting, the colour green is used for right curves, the colour red for left curves while the

stretches which are not assigned a colour and therefore remain blue identify a straight line.

It is important to note that, for correct operation of the reports on the segments, the finish line must be

positioned on a blue stretch.

In order to delete a segment, click on one of the ends of a stretch which marks it off, then move it out of the

line of the course so that it does not intersect it. The segment will be deleted automatically.

In order to delete all the segments of the course, ensure that the heading Segments is active in the control

in the top left-hand corner, then press the Eraser button.
