Each shot that is entered into the Editor can be marked so it is excluded from length calculations using the "L" flag. You have the option of displaying shots that have been excluded from length calculations. This is useful for visualizing which passages contribute to the length of the cave.
To display closure excluded shots, select the "Display -> Show -> Show Length Excluded Shots" option from the menu bar. When the "Length Excluded Shots" mode is enabled, the program will display and highlight the excluded shots. The Highlight Color is controlled by the "Feature Highlight" color in the "Color/Fonts Dialog Box" "This option does not display shots that were flagged with the "Total Exclusion" "X-Flag." When Length Excluded shots are displayed, most other options remain enabled. For example, if station labeling is enabled, station labels will be displayed along with the Length Excluded shots. The Length Excluded Shot feature does not support passage modeling.
Note: You must recompile your caves with the latest version of the Compiler before the feature will be available. Old versions of plot files and older versions of Compass don't support this feature.
