Setting

Description

Name

Name of the variable

Default: RM Bridge Modeler generates variables using "var" for the first three positions and increments by one (var1, var2, ....).

Value

A constant value has to be defined. Later in the segment definition the values may vary using formulas or tables.

Type

RM Bridge Modeler handles 3 types of variables:

Note: Construction lines are dependent on the type of variables. So, a parallel construction line requires a distance. Only a constant (e.g. 3.5), a variable without dimensions or a variable of type "length" can be used for such line.
