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.
