Usage

Click Measurement > Minimum Crossing Distance

Parameters

• Distance Type (default value is "Clearance"): Set calculation distance types, including clearance, horizontal, and vertical.
• Powerline Category (default value is "Conductor"): Set the category of power lines.
• Crossing Category (default value is "Scissors Crossing Down"): Set cross category.

Result

• Horizontal Distance: The horizontal distance between two points at the minimum crossing distance.
• Vertical Distance: The vertical distance between two points with the minimum crossing distance.
