The Difference overlay is an [[Overlay]] which displays the difference between the original and the maquette state of a specific [[Grid overlay|grid (dynamic) overlay]]. The difference overlay is therefore always linked to a specific grid overlay. This overlay is useful to see the impact of a certain [[Actions|action]] or [[Measures|measure]] in the 3D world on a certain overlay.
A few examples of where the Difference overlay can be useful are:

When clicking on a specific location in the map of the difference overlay, the hover panel gives additional information over the difference in units related to the Grid overlay on that specific cell.

The Difference overlay of the Heatstress overlay and additional information in the hover panel.

The Difference overlay displays the difference between the original and the maquette or planned state of a specific (dynamic) grid overlay to which the Difference overlay is linked as child overlay. A hover panel provides additional information on the occurring difference in a hovered over cell in the 3D Visualization, in the same units or terms as the parent grid overlay uses. The Difference overlay is primary created to visualize the impact of a specific action or measure on its parent overlay, and on the project in general.

A few examples of where the Difference overlay can be useful are:


Adding and removing

Editor → Current Situation (Ribbon tab) → Overlays (Ribbon bar)
Show difference option EN1.JPG

How to add the Difference overlay:
  1. Select in the editor 'Current Situation' from the ribbon
  2. Select 'Overlays' from the ribbon bar
  3. Select the specific overlay from the drop down menu of where you want to see the difference of
  4. In the panel on the right side of the Overlay check the Show Difference Option Box
  5. In the Overlay ribbon, click on see Difference Map


How to remove the Difference overlay:
  1. Select in the editor 'Current Situation' from the ribbon
  2. Select 'Overlays' from the ribbon bar
  3. Select the desired overlay from the list of active overlays on the left panel
  4. Select 'remove' from the bottom of the left panel
  5. Confirm the removal in the pop up confirmation message
