Notes

Some fields directly effect the appearance of the label or the calculation formula:

Mix% - Only applies to mix constituents. Changes the percentage coverage of the item in the length or area of the label.

Centre Distances - Overrides the default centre distances for this item and cause a recalculation of numbers for this item.

Fixed Quantites - Overrides the calculation altogether and use this number for the number of the item.

Slope Factor - The effective area or length will be increased taking into account the slope ratio entered here. For the formula used see the Slope Reference page.

Template - Change the fields displayed in the label's text. For a full list of macros that can be used in a template see the Label Template Reference page.
