Function Overlay

Active function overlay, named "Nature Highlight", configured to highlight green and garden functions.

The Function Overlay is an overlay which is used for indicating where buildings of certain functions exist. When added to a project, it can be activated by selecting the corresponding icon on the navigation panel. When activated, it displays 2 colors. One color indicates where the specified buildings exist, the other color is used for all other areas.

Function Color

This color indicates buildings of (one of) the specified function(s).

Background Color

This color indicates all areas where no building of the specified function(s) exist. This can be because there is no building, or a building of a different function, in that location.

Configuring the overlay

The Right Panel when a Function Overlay is selected.

By default, the overlay does not display any relevant information. The properties of this overlay must be configured first, most notably the list of functions to highlight.

Name

The field for the "name".

The name of the overlay. This name appears as the tooltip when hovering over the navigation panel icon and as the 'Function Color' description in the Overlay legend panel. Edit it via the 'Name' field.

Function and Background Color

The fields for the "Function Color" and "Background Color".

These colors define the overlay's appearance. 'Function Color' highlights specified buildings in the 3D Visualization, while 'Background Color' covers all other areas. Click a color field to specify a new color.

Functions

The list of functions which the overlay should highlight.

The functions which this overlay should highlight. Any function not in this list is not highlighted by the overlay. To add a function, click 'Add' and choose it from the selection window. To remove one, select the function and click 'Remove'.
