For some calculations, it may be neccesary or prudent to include data in a Project in the form of Areas, such as as a basis for the Travel Distance Overlay. However, making Area's dynamic for Future Designs, such as having a specific Area only exist when a certain Measure has been activated, will require some specific setup.


How to activate and deactivate an Area together with a Measure:
  1. Ensure the Area which should be (de)activated exists as data in the Project.
  2. Ensure the Area is not set to Active.
  3. In Future Design, open the list of Measures.
  4. Select the Measure which should (de)activate the Area.
  5. In the right panel, select the tab "Events".
  6. Ensure the dropdown is set to "On construction planned".
  7. At the bottom of the right panel, opt to add a "Server" event. This adds a "NO_DEF" event to the list of events.
  8. Select the "NO_DEF" event.
  9. In the bottom panel, select the "AREA_SET_ACTIVE" event.
  10. For "Area ID", select the desired Area. Ensure "Activated" is checked.
  11. Click on "Commit" to save the configured event.
  12. Switch the dropdown in the right panel to "On construction cancelled".
  13. Add another "Server" event, and select the newly added "NO_DEF" event.
  14. Configure this new event also as "AREA_SET_ACTIVE", set the "Area ID" to the desired Area, and ensure "Activated" is unchecked.
  15. Click on "Commit".
