Split line

Splits a line object into two new line objects.

The function is configured so that when a split has been made, the function is canceled. If you wish to split more lines, you need to activate the function again. This configuration is done for the following functions:

Edit > Object > Split line.

Place > Joints with cable split > Transposition.

Place > Joints with cable split > Joint.

Place > Joints with cable split > Branch joint.

 

When you split a line object, this is shown in the History tab of the object's attribute form. This applies to objects that had one of the following states at the time of the split:

In use

In use, planned for reconstruction

In use, planned for destruction

In use, not exported

In use, graphics generated

Destroyed

Discarded

Out of operation

For other states, the system considers the new line object as a completely new object without history.

 

When you change the object type, the old object type is displayed in the History tab of the object's attribute form. This applies to objects that had one of the following states at the time of the change:

In use

In use, planned for reconstruction

In use, planned for destruction

Out of operation

For other states, the system considers the new object type as a completely new object without history.
